Subject: per_cpu-fix-define_per_cpu_shared_aligned-for-modules fix
From: Eric Dumazet <dada1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
A typo was included in the patch I sent yesterday, since I was testing :
#ifdef CONFIG_MODULES
while the intention was to test
#ifdef MODULE
So that all SHARED_ALIGNED vmlinux percpu variables still are in the
special section.
The fix is only needed when compiling modules.
