I get the following error when I try to compile 2.5.8
init/main.o: In function `start_kernel':
init/main.o(.text.init+0x5e2): undefined reference to
`setup_per_cpu_areas'

Looking at the code it looks like someone got confused ;)
around the ifdefs.I'm under the assumption that setup_per_cpu_areas()
does nothing on a uniprocessor. The patch compile fine on
my PC.
