+ * PERCPU_VADDR - define output section for percpu area
+ * @vaddr: explicit base address (optional)
+ * @phdr: destination PHDR (optional)
+ *
+ * Macro which expands to output section for percpu area.  If @vaddr
+ * is not blank, it specifies explicit base address and all percpu
+ * symbols will be offset from the given address.  If blank, @vaddr
+ * always equals @laddr + LOAD_OFFSET.
+ *
+ * @phdr defines the output PHDR to use if not blank.  Be warned that
+ * output PHDR is sticky.  If @phdr is specified, the next output
+ * section in the linker script will go there too.  @phdr should have
+ * a leading colon.
+ *
+ * This macro defines three symbols, __per_cpu_load, __per_cpu_start
+ * and __per_cpu_end.  The first one is the vaddr of loaded percpu
+ * init data.  __per_cpu_start equals @vaddr and __per_cpu_end is the
+ * end offset.
