Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation.

  The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:

   - It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.

   - The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is
     in the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology
     evaluation.

   - The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and
     guest specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in
     case of XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.

   - The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
     code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.

   - There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing
     up the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which
     needs to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if
     that would be possible.

   - The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is
     incomprehensible and overly complex and needs to be kept around
     after boot instead of completing this right after the APIC
     enumeration.

  This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:

   - Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors
     and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform
     way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module,
     ..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead
     of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over.

   - A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
     interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.

   - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries
     to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
     evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
     preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.

   - A new registration and admission logic which

       - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
         cannot longer fiddle in it

       - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at
         registration time

       - provides a sane admission logic

       - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run
         on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent
         sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset
         the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command
         line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash
         scenarios.

       - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and
         prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow
         tolerated before.

   - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
     new interfaces.

     This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the
     parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV]
     handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time.

   - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
     segment bitmaps.

     This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows
     for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.

  The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout
  due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the
  admission logic further"
