But then the same fix must also be used in the asm code or the fallback
(turns out that the fallback is always used in kmem_cache_init since
the instruction patching comes later).
Patch boots fine both in UP and SMP mode
Subject: percpu: Omit segment prefix in the UP case for cmpxchg_double
Omit the segment prefix in the UP case. GS is not used then
and we will generate segfaults if cmpxchg16b is used otherwise.
