From c06cd66387da92e6cdac44e16c7b5ef9219c53ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2026 11:09:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] percpu: Sanitize __percpu_qual include hell Slapping __percpu_qual into the next available header is sloppy at best. It's required by __percpu which is defined in compiler_types.h and that is meant to be included without requiring a boatload of other headers so that a struct or function declaration can contain a __percpu qualifier w/o further prerequisites. This implicit dependency on linux/percpu.h makes that impossible and causes a major problem when trying to separate headers. Create asm/percpu_types.h and move it there. Include that from compiler_types.h and the whole recursion problem goes away. Fix up UM so it uses the generic header and includes it in the UM_HOST build, which pulls in compiler_types.h. The USER_CFLAGS fix was suggested by Richard.
