Finally we can use early_res to replace bootmem for x86_64 now.
Still can use CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM to enable it or not.

Simplify setup_node_mem: don't use bootmem from other node, instead
just find_e820_area in early_node_mem.
This keeps the boundary between early_res and boot mem more clear, and
lets us only call early_res_to_bootmem() one time instead of for all
nodes.

Jens found the following crash/regression:
[ 0.000000] found SMP MP-table at [ffff8800000fdd80] fdd80
[ 0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Overlapping early reservations 12-f011 MP-table mpc to 0-fff BIOS data page
and
[ 0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Overlapping early reservations 12-f011 MP-table mpc to 6000-7fff TRAMPOLINE
and bisected it to b24c2a9 ("x86: Move find_smp_config()
earlier and avoid bootmem usage").
It turns out the BIOS is using the first 64k for mptable,
without reserving it.
So try to find good range for the real-mode trampoline instead of
hard coding it, in case some bios tries to use that range for sth.

Move the find_smp_config() call to before bootmem is initialized.
Use reserve_early() instead of reserve_bootmem() in it.
This simplifies the code, we only need to call find_smp_config()
once and can remove the now unneeded reserve parameter from
x86_init_mpparse::find_smp_config.
We thus also reduce x86's dependency on bootmem allocations.

It is possible for x86_64 systems to lack the NX bit either due to the
hardware lacking support or the BIOS having turned off the CPU capability,
so NX status should be reported. Additionally, anyone booting NX-capable
CPUs in 32bit mode without PAE will lack NX functionality, so this change
provides feedback for that case as well.

The 32- and 64-bit code used very different mechanisms for enabling
NX, but even the 32-bit code was enabling NX in head_32.S if it is
available. Furthermore, we had a bewildering collection of tests for
the available of NX.
This patch:
a) merges the 32-bit set_nx() and the 64-bit check_efer() function
into a single x86_configure_nx() function. EFER control is left
to the head code.
b) eliminates the nx_enabled variable entirely. Things that need to
test for NX enablement can verify __supported_pte_mask directly,
and cpu_has_nx gives the supported status of NX.

Instead of using bootmem, try find_e820_area()/reserve_early(),
and call acpi_reserve_memory() early, to allocate the wakeup
trampoline code area below 1M.
This is more reliable, and it also removes a dependency on
bootmem.
-v2: change function name to acpi_reserve_wakeup_memory(),
as suggested by Rafael.

On platforms where the BIOS handles the thermal monitor interrupt,
APIC_LVTTHMR on each logical CPU is programmed to generate a SMI
and OS must not touch it.
Unfortunately AP bringup sequence using INIT-SIPI-SIPI clears all
the LVT entries except the mask bit. Essentially this results in
all LVT entries including the thermal monitoring interrupt set
to masked (clearing the bios programmed value for APIC_LVTTHMR).
And this leads to kernel take over the thermal monitoring
interrupt on AP's but not on BSP (leaving the bios programmed
value only on BSP).
As a result of this, we have seen system hangs when the thermal
monitoring interrupt is generated.
Fix this by reading the initial value of thermal LVT entry on
BSP and if bios has taken over the control, then program the
same value on all AP's and leave the thermal monitoring
interrupt control on all the logical cpu's to the bios.

This is the counterpart to "x86: export k8 physical topology" for
SRAT. It is not as invasive because the acpi code already seperates
node setup into detection and registration steps, with the
exception of registering e820 active regions in
acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init(). This is now moved to
acpi_scan_nodes() if NUMA emulation is disabled or deferred.
acpi_numa_init() now returns a value which specifies whether an
underlying SRAT was located. If so, that topology can be used by
the emulation code to interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes
or to register the nodes for ACPI.
acpi_get_nodes() may now be used to export the srat physical
topology of the machine for NUMA emulation.

To eventually interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes, we
need to know the physical topology of the machine without actually
registering it. This does the k8 node setup in two parts:
detection and registration. NUMA emulation can then used the
physical topology detected to setup the address ranges of emulated
nodes accordingly. If emulation isn't used, the k8 nodes are
registered as normal.
Two formals are added to the x86 NUMA setup functions: `acpi' and
`k8'. These represent whether ACPI or K8 NUMA has been detected;
both cannot be true at the same time. This specifies to the NUMA
emulation code whether an underlying physical NUMA topology exists
and which interface to use.
This patch deals solely with separating the k8 setup path into
Northbridge detection and registration steps and leaves the ACPI
changes for a subsequent patch. The `acpi' formal is added here,
however, to avoid touching all the header files again in the next
patch.
This approach also ensures emulated nodes will not span physical
nodes so the true memory latency is not misrepresented.
k8_get_nodes() may now be used to export the k8 physical topology
of the machine for NUMA emulation.

After close looking, commit 8126dec3 will break:
1. some cpu feature in early stage too, like cpu_has_x2apic
2. will break built-in-command line
3. will break other memmap= and mem=
4. early_dbgp and early_console that will use early_ioremap to access mmio (?)

Since parse_early_param() may (e.g. for earlyprintk=dbgp)
involve calls to page table manipulation functions (here
set_fixmap_nocache()), NX hardware support must be determined
before calling that function (so that __supported_pte_mask gets
properly set up).
But the call after parse_early_param() can also not go away, as
that will honor eventual command line specified disabling of
the NX functionality.
( This will then just result in whatever mappings got
established during parse_early_param() having the NX bit set
despite it being disabled on the command line, but I think
that's tolerable).

The system will die if the kernel is booted with "reservetop"
parameter, in present code, parse "reservetop" parameter after
early_ioremap_init(), and some function still use
early_ioremap() after it.
The problem is, "reservetop" parameter can modify
'FIXADDR_TOP', then the virtual address got by early_ioremap()
is base on old 'FIXADDR_TOP', but the page mapping is base on
new 'FIXADDR_TOP', it will occur page fault, and the IDT is not
prepare yet, so, the system is dead.
So, put parse_early_param() in the front of
early_ioremap_init() in this patch.

This patch adds kernel configuration and boot support for Intel Trusted
Execution Technology (Intel TXT).
Intel's technology for safer computing, Intel Trusted Execution
Technology (Intel TXT), defines platform-level enhancements that
provide the building blocks for creating trusted platforms.
Intel TXT was formerly known by the code name LaGrande Technology (LT).
Intel TXT in Brief:
o Provides dynamic root of trust for measurement (DRTM)
o Data protection in case of improper shutdown
o Measurement and verification of launched environment
Intel TXT is part of the vPro(TM) brand and is also available some
non-vPro systems. It is currently available on desktop systems based on
the Q35, X38, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets (e.g. Dell Optiplex 755, HP
dc7800, etc.) and mobile systems based on the GM45, PM45, and GS45
Express chipsets.
For more information, see http://www.intel.com/technology/security/.
This site also has a link to the Intel TXT MLE Developers Manual, which
has been updated for the new released platforms.
A much more complete description of how these patches support TXT, how to
configure a system for it, etc. is in the Documentation/intel_txt.txt file
in this patch.
This patch provides the TXT support routines for complete functionality,
documentation for TXT support and for the changes to the boot_params structure,
and boot detection of a TXT launch. Attempts to shutdown (reboot, Sx) the system
will result in platform resets; subsequent patches will support these shutdown modes
properly.

AMI BIOS with low memory corruption was found on Intel DG45ID
board (Bug 13710). Add this board to the blacklist - in the
(somewhat optimistic) hope of future boards/BIOSes from Intel
not having this bug.

The init_gbpages() function is conditionally called from
init_memory_mapping() function. There are two call-sites where
this 'after_bootmem' condition can be true: setup_arch() and
mem_init() via pci_iommu_alloc().
Therefore, it's safe to move the call to init_gbpages() to
setup_arch() as it's always called before mem_init().
This removes an after_bootmem use - paving the way to remove
all uses of that state variable.

On a system where system memory (according e820) is not covered by
mtrr, mtrr_trim_memory converts a portion of memory to reserved, but
bootloader has already put the initrd in that range.
Thus, we need to have 64bit to use relocate_initrd too.
[ Impact: fix using initrd when mtrr_trim_memory happen ]
