A bug against an xSeries system showed up recently noting that the
check_nmi_watchdog() test was failing.
I have been investigating it and discovered in both i386 and x86_64 the
recent change to the routine to use the cpu_callin_map has uncovered a
problem. Prior to that change, on an SMP box, the test was trivally
passing because all cpu's were found to not yet be online, but now with the
callin_map they are discovered, it goes on to test the counter and they
have not yet begun to increment, so it announces a CPU is stuck and bails
out.
On all the systems I have access to test, the announcement of failure is
also bougs... by the time you can login and check /proc/interrupts, the
NMI count is happily incrementing on all CPUs. Its just that the test is
being done too early.
I have tried moving the call to the test around a bit, and it was always
too early. I finally hit on this proposed solution, it delays the routine
via a late_initcall(), seems like the right solution to me.

I thought I'm done with fixing u32 vs. pm_message_t ... unfortunately that
turned out not to be the case... Here are fixes x86-64.

This will allow hotplug CPU in the future and in general cleans up a lot of
crufty code. It also should plug some races that the old hackish way
introduces. Remove one old race workaround in NMI watchdog setup that is not
needed anymore.
I removed the old total sum of bogomips reporting code. The brag value of
BogoMips has been greatly devalued in the last years on the open market.
Real CPU hotplug will need some more work, but the infrastructure for it is
there now.
One drawback: the new TSC sync algorithm is less accurate than before. The
old way of zeroing TSCs is too intrusive to do later. Instead the TSC of the
BP is duplicated now, which is less accurate.
akpm:
- sync_tsc_bp_init seems to have the sense of `init' inverted.
- SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED is deprecated - use DEFINE_SPINLOCK.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
