eeaaa96a3a x86/nmi: Fix section mismatch warnings on 32-bit
It was reported that compiling for 32-bit caused a bunch of
section mismatch warnings:

 VDSOSYM arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-syms.lds
  LD      arch/x86/vdso/built-in.o
  LD      arch/x86/built-in.o

 WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5af0): Section mismatch in
 reference from the variable test_nmi_ipi_callback_na.10451 to
 the function .init.text:test_nmi_ipi_callback() [...]

 WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5b04): Section mismatch in
 reference from the variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399 to the function
 .init.text:nmi_unk_cb() The variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399
 references the function __init nmi_unk_cb() [...]

Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of
the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler.  The
reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the
init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is.

To resolve this, I created a new #define,
register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as
__initdata to resolve the mismatch.  This #define should only be
used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called
during init of the kernel.

Big thanks to Jan Beulich for decoding this for me as I didn't
have a clue what was going on.

e7b30a17c1 Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86/urgent branch from Ingo Molnar:
 "These are the fixes left over from the very end of the v3.4
  stabilization cycle, plus one more fix."

Ugh.  Those KERN_CONT additions are just pointless.  I think they came
as a reaction to some of the early (broken) printk() work - but that was
fixed before it was merged.

29d679ffd8 x86, printk: Add missing KERN_CONT to NMI selftest
Fix this behaviour:

----------------
| NMI testsuite:
--------------------
  remote IPI:
  ok  |

   local IPI:
  ok  |

Revealed due to a new modification to printk().

c6ae41e7d4 x86: replace percpu_xxx funcs with this_cpu_xxx
Since percpu_xxx() serial functions are duplicated with this_cpu_xxx().
Removing percpu_xxx() definition and replacing them by this_cpu_xxx()
in code. There is no function change in this patch, just preparation for
later percpu_xxx serial function removing.

On x86 machine the this_cpu_xxx() serial functions are same as
__this_cpu_xxx() without no unnecessary premmpt enable/disable.

Thanks for Stephen Rothwell, he found and fixed a i386 build error in
the patch.

Also thanks for Andrew Morton, he kept updating the patchset in Linus'
tree.

If no remote cpus are online, then just quietly skip the remote

99e8b9ca90 x86, NMI: Add NMI IPI selftest
The previous patch modified the stop cpus path to use NMI
instead of IRQ as the way to communicate to the other cpus to
shutdown.  There were some concerns that various machines may
have problems with using an NMI IPI.

This patch creates a selftest to check if NMI is working at
boot. The idea is to help catch any issues before the machine
panics and we learn the hard way.

Loosely based on the locking-selftest.c file, this separate file
runs a couple of simple tests and reports the results.  The
output looks like:

...
Brought up 4 CPUs
----------------
| NMI testsuite:
--------------------
  remote IPI:  ok  |
   local IPI:  ok  |
--------------------
Good, all   2 testcases passed! |
---------------------------------
Total of 4 processors activated (21330.61 BogoMIPS).
