Subject: kaiser: cleanups while trying for gold link

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>


While trying to get our gold link to work, four cleanups:
matched the gdt_page declaration to its definition;
in fiddling unsuccessfully with PERCPU_INPUT(), lined up backslashes;
lined up the backslashes according to convention in percpu-defs.h;
deleted the unused irq_stack_pointer addition to irq_stack_union.

Sad to report that aligning backslashes does not appear to help gold
align to 8192: but while these did not help, they are worth keeping.
