Subject: percpu: use a Kconfig variable to configure arch specific percpu setup
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>

The use of the __GENERIC_PERCPU is a bit problematic since arches may want to
run their own percpu setup while using the generic percpu definitions. 
Replace it through a kconfig variable.
