I like these patches, thanks! This one's a bit broken, since the zero-based __per_cpu_start/end thing is an x86-64-ism. You really do want them relocated on other platforms, so I think you'll need do make this conditional via a --per-cpu-absolute flag to kallsyms (which x86-64 would set). Dumb Q: why don't we actually present these symbols as absolute in /proc/kallsyms? Seems like it would be clearer...
