    [IA64] increase ia64 static per cpu area · a95f9ac2

    I've been trying to avoid this for a long time ... but per-cpu space
    has slowly been growing.  Tejun has some patches in linux-next that
    pre-reserve some space (PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE) for use before
    slab comes online ... and this pushes ia64 above the 64K current
    limit on static percpu space.
    
    I could probably squeeze it back under (we are only over by 512 bytes).
    But I don't think that I'll be able to squeeze it down enough to build
    a comfortable breathing space - and I don't want to keep nibbling off
    a dozen bytes here and there every time some generic code bumps us
    back over the limit.
    
    Next available supported page size is 256K ... so we have to quadruple
    the available space - a bigger jump than I'd like. But perhaps it will
    be enough to last a few more years before it needs to be increased again.
