aafbdf71f1 x86: fix mpparse/acpi interaction
Sitsofe Wheeler reported boot problems on linux-next.

It looks like the same issue as found by Soeren Sandman in 7575217f656a93,
"x86: initialize all fields of mp_irqs[mp_irq_entries]".

But his fix is also not complete, as dstapic is used before it assigned.

69c9189320 x86 boot: add code to add BIOS provided EFI memory entries to kernel
Add to the kernels boot memory map 'memmap' entries found in
the EFI memory descriptors passed in from the BIOS.

On EFI systems, up to E820MAX == 128 memory map entries can
be passed via the legacy E820 interface (limited by the size
of the 'zeropage').  These entries can be duplicated in the
EFI descriptors also passed from the BIOS, and possibly more
entries passed by the EFI interface, which does not have the
E820MAX limit on number of memory map entries.

This code doesn't worry about the likely duplicate, overlapping
or (unlikely) conflicting entries between the EFI map and the
E820 map.  It just dumps all the EFI entries into the memmap[]
array (which already has the E820 entries) and lets the existing
routine sanitize_e820_map() sort the mess out.

6e9bcc796b x86 boot: change sanitize_e820_map parameter from byte to int to allow bigger memory maps
The map size counter passed into, and back out of, sanitize_e820_map(),
was an eight bit type (char or u8), as derived from its origins in
legacy BIOS E820 structures.  This patch changes that type to an 'int',
to allow this sanitize routine to also be used on larger maps (larger
than the 256 count that fits in a char).  The legacy BIOS E820 interface
of course does not change; that remains at 8 bits for this count, holding
up to E820MAX == 128 entries.  But the kernel internals can handle more
when those additional memory map entries are passed from the BIOS via
EFI interfaces.

028b785888 x86 boot: extend some internal memory map arrays to handle larger EFI input
Extend internal boot time memory tables to allow for up to
three entries per node, which may be larger than the 128 E820MAX
entries handled by the legacy BIOS E820 interface.  The EFI
interface, if present, is capable of passing memory map
entries for these larger node counts.

This patch requires an earlier patch that rewrote code depending
on these array sizes from using E820MAX explicitly to size loops,
to instead using ARRAY_SIZE() of the applicable array.

Another patch following this one will provide the code to pick
up additional memory entries passed via the EFI interface from
the BIOS and insert them in the following, now enlarged, arrays.

c3965bd151 x86 boot: proper use of ARRAY_SIZE instead of repeated E820MAX constant
This patch is motivated by a subsequent patch which will allow for more
memory map entries on EFI supported systems than can be passed via the x86
legacy BIOS E820 interface.  The legacy interface is limited to E820MAX ==
128 memory entries, and that "E820MAX" manifest constant was used as the
size for several arrays and loops over those arrays.

The primary change in this patch is to change code loop sizes over those
arrays from using the constant E820MAX, to using the ARRAY_SIZE() macro
evaluated for the array being looped.  That way, a subsequent patch can
change the size of some of these arrays, without breaking this code.

This patch also adds a parameter to the sanitize_e820_map() routine,
which had an implicit size for the array passed it of E820MAX entries.
This new parameter explicitly passes the size of said array.  Once again,
this will allow a subsequent patch to change that array size for some
calls to sanitize_e820_map() without breaking the code.

As part of enhancing the sanitize_e820_map() interface this way, I further
combined the unnecessarily distinct x86_32 and x86_64 declarations for
this routine into a single, commonly used, declaration.

This patch in itself should make no difference to the resulting kernel
binary.

- setup_memory_map() and finish_e820_parsing() are
factored out from setup_arch(), and declarations
are added to e820_32.h.

- print_memory_map() is made static and removed from
e820_32.h.

- user_defined_memmap is marked as __initdata.

93dae5b70e sparc64: Add global register dumping facility.
When a cpu really is stuck in the kernel, it can be often
impossible to figure out which cpu is stuck where.  The
worst case is when the stuck cpu has interrupts disabled.

Therefore, implement a global cpu state capture that uses
SMP message interrupts which are not disabled by the
normal IRQ enable/disable APIs of the kernel.

As long as we can get a sysrq 'y' to the kernel, we can
get a dump.  Even if the console interrupt cpu is wedged,
we can trigger it from userspace using /proc/sysrq-trigger

The output is made compact so that this facility is more
useful on high cpu count systems, which is where this
facility will likely find itself the most useful :)
