      net: xfrm: use __this_cpu_read per-cpu helper · f7c83bcb
      Shan Wei authored
      this_cpu_ptr/this_cpu_read is faster than per_cpu_ptr(p, smp_processor_id())
      and can reduce  memory accesses.
      The latter helper needs to find the offset for current cpu,
      and needs more assembler instructions which objdump shows in following.
      
      this_cpu_ptr relocates and address. this_cpu_read() relocates the address
      and performs the fetch. this_cpu_read() saves you more instructions
      since it can do the relocation and the fetch in one instruction.
      
      per_cpu_ptr(p, smp_processor_id()):
