a6a198bc60 xen/x86: Update topology map for PV VCPUs
Early during boot topology_update_package_map() computes
logical_pkg_ids for all present processors.

Later, when processors are brought up, identify_cpu() updates
these values based on phys_pkg_id which is a function of
initial_apicid. On PV guests the latter may point to a
non-existing node, causing logical_pkg_ids to be set to -1.

Intel's RAPL uses logical_pkg_id (as topology_logical_package_id())
to index its arrays and therefore in this case will point to index
65535 (since logical_pkg_id is a u16). This could lead to either a
crash or may actually access random memory location.

As a workaround, we recompute topology during CPU bringup to reset
logical_pkg_id to a valid value.

(The reason for initial_apicid being bogus is because it is
initial_apicid of the processor from which the guest is launched.
This value is CPUID(1).EBX[31:24])

72a9b18629 xen: Remove event channel notification through Xen PCI platform device
Ever since commit 254d1a3f02 ("xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches
from old kernel") using the INTx interrupt from Xen PCI platform
device for event channel notification would just lockup the guest
during bootup.  postcore_initcall now calls xs_reset_watches which
will eventually try to read a value from XenStore and will get stuck
on read_reply at XenBus forever since the platform driver is not
probed yet and its INTx interrupt handler is not registered yet. That
means that the guest can not be notified at this moment of any pending
event channels and none of the per-event handlers will ever be invoked
(including the XenStore one) and the reply will never be picked up by
the kernel.

The exact stack where things get stuck during xenbus_init:

-xenbus_init
 -xs_init
  -xs_reset_watches
   -xenbus_scanf
    -xenbus_read
     -xs_single
      -xs_single
       -xs_talkv

Vector callbacks have always been the favourite event notification
mechanism since their introduction in commit 38e20b07ef ("x86/xen:
event channels delivery on HVM.") and the vector callback feature has
always been advertised for quite some time by Xen that's why INTx was
broken for several years now without impacting anyone.

Luckily this also means that event channel notification through INTx
is basically dead-code which can be safely removed without impacting
anybody since it has been effectively disabled for more than 4 years
with nobody complaining about it (at least as far as I'm aware of).

This commit removes event channel notification through Xen PCI
platform device.

ee42d665d3 xen/pvhvm: run xen_vcpu_setup() for the boot CPU
Historically we didn't call VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info for CPU0 for
PVHVM guests (while we had it for PV and ARM guests). This is usually
fine as we can use vcpu info in the shared_info page but when we try
booting on a vCPU with Xen's vCPU id > 31 (e.g. when we try to kdump
after crashing on this CPU) we're not able to boot.

Switch to always doing VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info for the boot CPU.

ad5475f9fa x86/xen: use xen_vcpu_id mapping for HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op
HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op() passes Linux's idea of vCPU id as a parameter
while Xen's idea is expected. In some cases these ideas diverge so we
need to do remapping.

Convert all callers of HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op() to use xen_vcpu_nr().

Leave xen_fill_possible_map() and xen_filter_cpu_maps() intact as
they're only being called by PV guests before perpu areas are
initialized. While the issue could be solved by switching to
early_percpu for xen_vcpu_id I think it's not worth it: PV guests will
probably never get to the point where their idea of vCPU id diverges
from Xen's.

fc6d73d674 arch/hotplug: Call into idle with a proper state
Let the non boot cpus call into idle with the corresponding hotplug state, so
the hotplug core can handle the further bringup. That's a first step to
convert the boot side of the hotplugged cpus to do all the synchronization
with the other side through the state machine. For now it'll only start the
hotplug thread and kick the full bringup of the cpu.

0df4f266b3 xen: Use correctly the Xen memory terminologies
Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN
is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for
PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and
confused developers about the expected behavior.

For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name.
Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN.

For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with
gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some
reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests
No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even
though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion
in xen repo.

Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a
name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page.

Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such
as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up
will come in follow-up patches.

65d0cf0be7 xen/PMU: Initialization code for Xen PMU
Map shared data structure that will hold CPU registers, VPMU context,
V/PCPU IDs of the CPU interrupted by PMU interrupt. Hypervisor fills
this information in its handler and passes it to the guest for further
processing.

Set up PMU VIRQ.

Now that perf infrastructure will assume that PMU is available on a PV
guest we need to be careful and make sure that accesses via RDPMC
instruction don't cause fatal traps by the hypervisor. Provide a nop
RDPMC handler.

For the same reason avoid issuing a warning on a write to APIC's LVTPC.

Both of these will be made functional in later patches.

ef593260f0 x86/asm/entry: Get rid of KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET
PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) was set up in a way where it points
five stack slots below the top of stack.

Presumably, it was done to avoid one "sub $5*8,%rsp"
in syscall/sysenter code paths, where iret frame needs to be
created by hand.

Ironically, none of them benefits from this optimization,
since all of them need to allocate additional data on stack
(struct pt_regs), so they still have to perform subtraction.

This patch eliminates KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET.

PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) now points directly to top of stack.
pt_regs allocations are adjusted to allocate iret frame as well.
Hopefully we can merge it later with 32-bit specific
PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack) variable...

Net result in generated code is that constants in several insns
are changed.

This change is necessary for changing struct pt_regs creation
in SYSCALL64 code path from MOV to PUSH instructions.

2a442c9c64 x86: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code
This commit removes the open-coded CPU-offline notification with new
common code.  Among other things, this change avoids calling scheduler
code using RCU from an offline CPU that RCU is ignoring.  It also allows
Xen to notice at online time that the CPU did not go offline correctly.
Note that Xen has the surviving CPU carry out some cleanup operations,
so if the surviving CPU times out, these cleanup operations might have
been carried out while the outgoing CPU was still running.  It might
therefore be unwise to bring this CPU back online, and this commit
avoids doing so.

a2ef5dc2c7 x86/xen: Set EFER.NX and EFER.SCE in PVH guests
This fixes two bugs in PVH guests:

  - Not setting EFER.NX means the NX bit in page table entries is
    ignored on Intel processors and causes reserved bit page faults on
    AMD processors.

  - After the Xen commit 7645640d6ff1 ("x86/PVH: don't set EFER_SCE for

    SYSCALL instruction.

Secondary VCPUs are started with pagetables with the NX bit set so
EFER.NX must be set before using any stack or data segment.
xen_pvh_cpu_early_init() is the new secondary VCPU entry point that
sets EFER before jumping to cpu_bringup_and_idle().

ce4b1b1650 x86/smpboot: Initialize secondary CPU only if master CPU will wait for it
Hang is observed on virtual machines during CPU hotplug,
especially in big guests with many CPUs. (It reproducible
more often if host is over-committed).

It happens because master CPU gives up waiting on
secondary CPU and allows it to run wild. As result
AP causes locking or crashing system. For example
as described here:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/6/257

If master CPU have sent STARTUP IPI successfully,
and AP signalled to master CPU that it's ready
to start initialization, make master CPU wait
indefinitely till AP is onlined.

To ensure that AP won't ever run wild, make it
wait at early startup till master CPU confirms its
intention to wait for AP. If AP doesn't respond in 10
seconds, the master CPU will timeout and cancel
AP onlining.

Commit 198d208df4 ("x86: Keep

1. kernel_stack needs to be initialized for secondary CPUs

2. GET_THREAD_INFO() now uses %fs register which may not be the
   kernel's version when executing xen_iret().

With respect to the second issue, we don't need GET_THREAD_INFO()
anymore: we used it as an intermediate step to get to per_cpu xen_vcpu
and avoid referencing %fs. Now that we are going to use %fs anyway we
may as well go directly to xen_vcpu.

c9f6e9977e xen/pvh: Set X86_CR0_WP and others in CR0 (v2)
otherwise we will get for some user-space applications
that use 'clone' with CLONE_CHILD_SETTID | CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID
end up hitting an assert in glibc manifested by:

general protection ip:7f80720d364c sp:7fff98fd8a80 error:0 in
libc-2.13.so[7f807209e000+180000]

This is due to the nature of said operations which sets and clears
the PID.  "In the successful one I can see that the page table of
the parent process has been updated successfully to use a
different physical page, so the write of the tid on
that page only affects the child...

On the other hand, in the failed case, the write seems to happen before
the copy of the original page is done, so both the parent and the child
end up with the same value (because the parent copies the page after
the write of the child tid has already happened)."
(Roger's analysis). The nature of this is due to the Xen's commit
of 51e2cac257ec8b4080d89f0855c498cbbd76a5e5
"x86/pvh: set only minimal cr0 and cr4 flags in order to use paging"
the CR0_WP was removed so COW features of the Linux kernel were not
operating properly.

While doing that also update the rest of the CR0 flags to be inline
with what a baremetal Linux kernel would set them to.

In 'secondary_startup_64' (baremetal Linux) sets:

X86_CR0_PE | X86_CR0_MP | X86_CR0_ET | X86_CR0_NE | X86_CR0_WP |
X86_CR0_AM | X86_CR0_PG

The hypervisor for HVM type guests (which PVH is a bit) sets:
X86_CR0_PE | X86_CR0_ET | X86_CR0_TS
For PVH it specifically sets:
X86_CR0_PG

Which means we need to set the rest: X86_CR0_MP | X86_CR0_NE  |
X86_CR0_WP | X86_CR0_AM to have full parity.

 - For HVM guests, the structures read include: fpu_ctxt (if
 VGCT_I387_VALID is set), flags, user_regs, debugreg[*]

 - PVH guests are the same as HVM guests, but additionally use ctrlreg[3] to
 set cr3. All other fields not used should be set to 0.

This is what we do. We piggyback on the 'xen_setup_gdt' - but modify
a bit - we need to call 'load_percpu_segment' so that 'switch_to_new_gdt'
can load per-cpu data-structures. It has no effect on the VCPU0.

We also piggyback on the %rdi register to pass in the CPU number - so
that when we bootup a new CPU, the cpu_bringup_and_idle will have
passed as the first parameter the CPU number (via %rdi for 64-bit).

7cde9b27e7 xen: Fix possible user space selector corruption
Due to the way kernel is initialized under Xen is possible that the
ring1 selector used by the kernel for the boot cpu end up to be copied
to userspace leading to segmentation fault in the userspace.

Xen code in the kernel initialize no-boot cpus with correct selectors (ds
and es set to __USER_DS) but the boot one keep the ring1 (passed by Xen).
On task context switch (switch_to) we assume that ds, es and cs already
point to __USER_DS and __KERNEL_CSso these selector are not changed.

If processor is an Intel that support sysenter instruction sysenter/sysexit
is used so ds and es are not restored switching back from kernel to
userspace. In the case the selectors point to a ring1 instead of __USER_DS
the userspace code will crash on first memory access attempt (to be
precise Xen on the emulated iret used to do sysexit will detect and set ds
and es to zero which lead to GPF anyway).

Now if an userspace process call kernel using sysenter and get rescheduled
(for me it happen on a specific init calling wait4) could happen that the
ring1 selector is set to ds and es.

This is quite hard to detect cause after a while these selectors are fixed
(__USER_DS seems sticky).

Bisecting the code commit 7076aada10 appears
to be the first one that have this issue.

26a7999527 xen/smp: Update pv_lock_ops functions before alternative code starts under PVHVM
Before this patch we would patch all of the pv_lock_ops sites
using alternative assembler. Then later in the bootup cycle
change the unlock_kick and lock_spinning to the Xen specific -
without re patching.

That meant that for the core of the kernel we would be running
with the baremetal version of unlock_kick and lock_spinning while
for modules we would have the proper Xen specific slowpaths.

As most of the module uses some API from the core kernel that ended
up with slowpath lockers waiting forever to be kicked (b/c they
would be using the Xen specific slowpath logic). And the
kick never came b/c the unlock path that was taken was the
baremetal one.

On PV we do not have the problem as we initialise before the
alternative code kicks in.

The fix is to make the updating of the pv_lock_ops function
be done before the alternative code starts patching.

Note that this patch fixes issues discovered by commit
f10cd522c5.
("xen: disable PV spinlocks on HVM") wherein it mentioned

   PV spinlocks cannot possibly work with the current code because they are
   enabled after pvops patching has already been done, and because PV
   spinlocks use a different data structure than native spinlocks so we
   cannot switch between them dynamically.

The first problem is solved by this patch.

The second problem has been solved by commit
816434ec4a
(Merge branch 'x86-spinlocks-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip)

P.S.
There is still the commit 70dd4998cb
(xen/spinlock: Disable IRQ spinlock (PV) allocation on PVHVM) to
revert but that can be done later after all other bugs have been
fixed.

1fb3a8b2cf xen/spinlock: Fix locking path engaging too soon under PVHVM.
The xen_lock_spinning has a check for the kicker interrupts
and if it is not initialized it will spin normally (not enter
the slowpath).

But for PVHVM case we would initialize the kicker interrupt
before the CPU came online. This meant that if the booting
CPU used a spinlock and went in the slowpath - it would
enter the slowpath and block forever. The forever part because
during bootup: the spinlock would be taken _before_ the CPU
sets itself to be online (more on this further), and we enter
to poll on the event channel forever.

The bootup CPU (see commit fc78d343fa
"xen/smp: initialize IPI vectors before marking CPU online"
for details) and the CPU that started the bootup consult
the cpu_online_mask to determine whether the booting CPU should
get an IPI. The booting CPU has to set itself in this mask via:

  set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true);

However, if the spinlock is taken before this (and it is) and
it polls on an event channel - it will never be woken up as
the kernel will never send an IPI to an offline CPU.

Note that the PVHVM logic in sending IPIs is using the HVM
path which has numerous checks using the cpu_online_mask
and cpu_active_mask. See above mention git commit for details.

fc78d343fa xen/smp: initialize IPI vectors before marking CPU online
An older PVHVM guest (v3.0 based) crashed during vCPU hot-plug with:

	kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!

RCU has detected that a CPU has not entered a quiescent state within the
grace period.  It needs to send the CPU a reschedule IPI if it is not
offline.  rcu_implicit_offline_qs() does this check:

	/*
	 * If the CPU is offline, it is in a quiescent state.  We can
	 * trust its state not to change because interrupts are disabled.
	 */
	if (cpu_is_offline(rdp->cpu)) {
		rdp->offline_fqs++;
		return 1;
	}

	Else the CPU is online.  Send it a reschedule IPI.

The CPU is in the middle of being hot-plugged and has been marked online
(!cpu_is_offline()).  See start_secondary():

	set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true);
	...
	per_cpu(cpu_state, smp_processor_id()) = CPU_ONLINE;

start_secondary() then waits for the CPU bringing up the hot-plugged CPU to
mark it as active:

	/*
	 * Wait until the cpu which brought this one up marked it
	 * online before enabling interrupts. If we don't do that then
	 * we can end up waking up the softirq thread before this cpu
	 * reached the active state, which makes the scheduler unhappy
	 * and schedule the softirq thread on the wrong cpu. This is
	 * only observable with forced threaded interrupts, but in
	 * theory it could also happen w/o them. It's just way harder
	 * to achieve.
	 */
	while (!cpumask_test_cpu(smp_processor_id(), cpu_active_mask))
		cpu_relax();

	/* enable local interrupts */
	local_irq_enable();

The CPU being hot-plugged will be marked active after it has been fully
initialized by the CPU managing the hot-plug.  In the Xen PVHVM case
xen_smp_intr_init() is called to set up the hot-plugged vCPU's
XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.

The hot-plugging CPU is marked online, not marked active and does not have
its IPI vectors set up.  rcu_implicit_offline_qs() sees the hot-plugging
cpu is !cpu_is_offline() and tries to send it a reschedule IPI:
This will lead to:

	kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!

	xen_send_IPI_one()
	xen_smp_send_reschedule()
	rcu_implicit_offline_qs()
	rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs()
	force_qs_rnp()
	force_quiescent_state()
	__rcu_process_callbacks()
	rcu_process_callbacks()
	__do_softirq()
	call_softirq()
	do_softirq()
	irq_exit()
	xen_evtchn_do_upcall()

because xen_send_IPI_one() will attempt to use an uninitialized IRQ for
the XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.

There is at least one other place that has caused the same crash:

	xen_smp_send_reschedule()
	wake_up_idle_cpu()
	add_timer_on()
	clocksource_watchdog()
	call_timer_fn()
	run_timer_softirq()
	__do_softirq()
	call_softirq()
	do_softirq()
	irq_exit()
	xen_evtchn_do_upcall()
	xen_hvm_callback_vector()

clocksource_watchdog() uses cpu_online_mask to pick the next CPU to handle
a watchdog timer:

	/*
	 * Cycle through CPUs to check if the CPUs stay synchronized
	 * to each other.
	 */
	next_cpu = cpumask_next(raw_smp_processor_id(), cpu_online_mask);
	if (next_cpu >= nr_cpu_ids)
		next_cpu = cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask);
	watchdog_timer.expires += WATCHDOG_INTERVAL;
	add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, next_cpu);

This resulted in an attempt to send an IPI to a hot-plugging CPU that
had not initialized its reschedule vector. One option would be to make
the RCU code check to not check for CPU offline but for CPU active.
As becoming active is done after a CPU is online (in older kernels).

But Srivatsa pointed out that "the cpu_active vs cpu_online ordering has been
completely reworked - in the online path, cpu_active is set *before* cpu_online,
and also, in the cpu offline path, the cpu_active bit is reset in the CPU_DYING
notification instead of CPU_DOWN_PREPARE." Drilling in this the bring-up
path: "[brought up CPU].. send out a CPU_STARTING notification, and in response
to that, the scheduler sets the CPU in the cpu_active_mask. Again, this mask
is better left to the scheduler alone, since it has the intelligence to use it
judiciously."

The conclusion was that:
"
1. At the IPI sender side:

   It is incorrect to send an IPI to an offline CPU (cpu not present in
   the cpu_online_mask). There are numerous places where we check this
   and warn/complain.

2. At the IPI receiver side:

   It is incorrect to let the world know of our presence (by setting
   ourselves in global bitmasks) until our initialization steps are complete
   to such an extent that we can handle the consequences (such as
   receiving interrupts without crashing the sender etc.)
" (from Srivatsa)

As the native code enables the interrupts at some point we need to be
able to service them. In other words a CPU must have valid IPI vectors
if it has been marked online.

It doesn't need to handle the IPI (interrupts may be disabled) but needs
to have valid IPI vectors because another CPU may find it in cpu_online_mask
and attempt to send it an IPI.

This patch will change the order of the Xen vCPU bring-up functions so that
Xen vectors have been set up before start_secondary() is called.
It also will not continue to bring up a Xen vCPU if xen_smp_intr_init() fails
to initialize it.

6efa20e49b xen: Support 64-bit PV guest receiving NMIs
This is based on a patch that Zhenzhong Duan had sent - which
was missing some of the remaining pieces. The kernel has the
logic to handle Xen-type-exceptions using the paravirt interface
in the assembler code (see PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME -
pv_irq_ops.adjust_exception_frame and and INTERRUPT_RETURN -
pv_cpu_ops.iret).

That means the nmi handler (and other exception handlers) use
the hypervisor iret.

The other changes that would be neccessary for this would
be to translate the NMI_VECTOR to one of the entries on the
ipi_vector and make xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself use different
events.

Fortunately for us commit 1db01b4903
(xen: Clean up apic ipi interface) implemented this and we piggyback
on the cleanup such that the apic IPI interface will pass the right
vector value for NMI.

With this patch we can trigger NMIs within a PV guest (only tested
x86_64).

For this to work with normal PV guests (not initial domain)
we need the domain to be able to use the APIC ops - they are
already implemented to use the Xen event channels. For that
to be turned on in a PV domU we need to remove the masking
of X86_FEATURE_APIC.

Incidentally that means kgdb will also now work within
a PV guest without using the 'nokgdbroundup' workaround.

Note that the 32-bit version is different and this patch
does not enable that.

makes it impossible to use the jump_label machinery.

148f9bb877 x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 files
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files.  x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

466318a87f xen/smp: Fixup NOHZ per cpu data when onlining an offline CPU.
The xen_play_dead is an undead function. When the vCPU is told to
offline it ends up calling xen_play_dead wherin it calls the
VCPUOP_down hypercall which offlines the vCPU. However, when the
vCPU is onlined back, it resumes execution right after
VCPUOP_down hypercall.

That was OK (albeit the API for play_dead assumes that the CPU
stays dead and never returns) but with commit 4b0c0f294
(tick: Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down) that is no longer safe
as said commit resets the ts->inidle which at the start of the
cpu_idle loop was set.

The net effect is that we get this warn:

1db01b4903 xen: Clean up apic ipi interface
Commit f447d56d36 introduced the
implementation of the PV apic ipi interface. But there were some
odd things (it seems none of which cause really any issue but
maybe they should be cleaned up anyway):
 - xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself (and by that xen_send_IPI_allbutself)
   ignore the passed in vector and only use the CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE
   vector. While xen_send_IPI_all and xen_send_IPI_mask use the vector.
 - physflat_send_IPI_allbutself is declared unnecessarily. It is never
   used.

This patch tries to clean up those things.

66ff0fe9e7 xen/smp/spinlock: Fix leakage of the spinlock interrupt line for every CPU online/offline
While we don't use the spinlock interrupt line (see for details
commit f10cd522c5 -
xen: disable PV spinlocks on HVM) - we should still do the proper
init / deinit sequence. We did not do that correctly and for the
CPU init for PVHVM guest we would allocate an interrupt line - but
failed to deallocate the old interrupt line.

This resulted in leakage of an irq_desc but more importantly this splat
as we online an offlined CPU:

816afe4ff9 x86/smp: Don't ever patch back to UP if we unplug cpus
We still patch SMP instructions to UP variants if we boot with a
single CPU, but not at any other time.  In particular, not if we
unplug CPUs to return to a single cpu.

Paul McKenney points out:

 mean offline overhead is 6251/48=130.2 milliseconds.

 If I remove the alternatives_smp_switch() from the offline
 path [...] the mean offline overhead is 550/42=13.1 milliseconds

Basically, we're never going to get those 120ms back, and the
code is pretty messy.

We get rid of:

 1) The "smp-alt-once" boot option. It's actually "smp-alt-boot", the
    documentation is wrong. It's now the default.

 2) The skip_smp_alternatives flag used by suspend.

 3) arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_begin() and arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_end()
    which were only used to set this one flag.
