They do nothing on UP.
quoting from include/asm-generic.h:

#else /* ! SMP */

#define per_cpu(var, cpu)			(*((void)(cpu), &(var)))
#define __get_cpu_var(var)			(var)
#define __raw_get_cpu_var(var)			(var)
#define this_cpu_ptr(ptr) per_cpu_ptr(ptr, 0)
#define __this_cpu_ptr(ptr) this_cpu_ptr(ptr)

#endif	/* SMP */
