94f6bac105 x86: do not allow to optimize flag_is_changeable_p() (rev. 2)
The flag_is_changeable_p() is used by
has_cpuid_p() which can return different results
in the code sequence below:

 if (!have_cpuid_p())
      identify_cpu_without_cpuid(c);

  /* cyrix could have cpuid enabled via c_identify()*/
  if (!have_cpuid_p())
      return;

Otherwise, the gcc 3.4.6 optimizes these two calls
into one which make the code not working correctly.

Cyrix cpus have the CPUID instruction enabled before
the second call to the have_cpuid_p() but
it is not detected due to the gcc optimization.
Thus the ARR registers (mtrr like) are not detected
on such a cpu.

b3e15bdef6 x86, NMI watchdog: setup before enabling NMI watchdog
There's a small window when NMI watchdog is being set up that if any NMIs
are triggered, the NMI code will make make use of not initalized wd_ops
elements:
	void setup_apic_nmi_watchdog(void *unused)
	{
		if (__get_cpu_var(wd_enabled))
			return;

		/* cheap hack to support suspend/resume */
		/* if cpu0 is not active neither should the other cpus */
		if (smp_processor_id() != 0 && atomic_read(&nmi_active) <= 0)
			return;

		switch (nmi_watchdog) {
		case NMI_LOCAL_APIC:
			/* enable it before to avoid race with handler */
-->			__get_cpu_var(wd_enabled) = 1;
-->			if (lapic_watchdog_init(nmi_hz) < 0) {
(...)
	asmlinkage notrace __kprobes void default_do_nmi(struct pt_regs *regs)
	{
	(...)
			if (nmi_watchdog_tick(regs, reason))
				return;
(...)
	notrace __kprobes int
	nmi_watchdog_tick(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned reason)
	{
	(...)
		if (!__get_cpu_var(wd_enabled))
			return rc;
		switch (nmi_watchdog) {
		case NMI_LOCAL_APIC:
			rc |= lapic_wd_event(nmi_hz);
(...)
int lapic_wd_event(unsigned nmi_hz)
{
	struct nmi_watchdog_ctlblk *wd = &__get_cpu_var(nmi_watchdog_ctlblk);
	u64 ctr;

-->	rdmsrl(wd->perfctr_msr, ctr);

and wd->*_msr will be initialized on each processor type specific setup, after
enabling NMIs for PMIs. Since the counter was just set, the chances of an
performance counter generated NMI is minimal, but any other unknown NMI would
trigger the problem. This patch fixes the problem by setting everything up
before enabling performance counter generated NMIs and will set wd_enabled
using a callback function.

28b166a700 x86, NMI watchdog: when booting with reset_devices, clear the performance counters
P4s have a quirk that makes necessary to clear P4_CCCR_OVF bit on the CCCR
everytime the PMI is triggered. When booting the kernel with reset_devices
(more specific kdump case), the counters reach zero and the PMI will be
generated. This is not a problem on other processors but on P4s, it'll
continue to generate NMIs until that bit is cleared. Since there may be
other users of the performance counters, clear and disable all of them
when booting with reset_devices option.

We have a P4 box here that crashes because of this problem. Since the kdump
kernel usually boots with only one processor active, the second logical
unit won't be set up, therefore, MSR_P4_IQ_CCCR1 (and other performance
counter registers) won't be cleared and P4_CCCR_OVF may be still set because
the previous kernel was using this register. An NMI is triggered because of
the MSR_P4_IQ_CCCR1 right after the NMI delivery is enabled, triggering the
race fixed on my previous email.

16dc552f35 x86: use WARN_ONCE in workaround for mtrr mask
so could help catch attention about bug in bios about mtrr mask setting.

WARN_ONCE got into mainline already, lets use it.

279b0bbba2 x86: fix arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/main.c warning
fix this warning reported by Andrew Morton:

> arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/main.c: In function 'mtrr_bp_init':
> arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/main.c:1170: warning: 'extra_remove_base' may be used uninitialized in this function

the warning is bogus but the logic that prevents uninitialized use
is a bit convoluted so simplify it all.

ba0593bf55 x86: completely disable NOPL on 32 bits
Completely disable NOPL on 32 bits.  It turns out that Microsoft
Virtual PC is so broken it can't even reliably *fail* in the presence
of NOPL.

This leaves the infrastructure in place but disables it
unconditionally.

aef93c8bd5 x86: identify_cpu_without_cpuid v2
Krzysztof found some old cyrix cpu where an mtrr-alike cpu feature was
not detected properly.

this one is based on Krzysztof' patch, and we call ->c_identify() in
early_identify_cpu.

need to call c_identify() for cpus without cpuid even earlier ...

v2: Krzysztof point out need to give cyrix another chance about cpuid
    checking again, after ->c_identify() enables cpuid for it

e38e05a858 x86: extended "flags" to show virtualization HW feature in /proc/cpuinfo
The hardware virtualization technology evolves very fast. But currently
it's hard to tell if your CPU support a certain kind of HW technology
without digging into the source code.

The patch add a new catagory in "flags" under /proc/cpuinfo. Now "flags"
can indicate the (important) HW virtulization features the CPU supported
as well.

Current implementation just cover Intel VMX side.
