      x86, dmi, debug: Log board name (when present) in dmesg/oops output · 84e383b3
      Naga Chumbalkar authored
      The "Type 2" SMBIOS record that contains Board Name is not
      strictly required and may be absent in the SMBIOS on some
      platforms.
      
      ( Please note that Type 2 is not listed in Table 3 in Sec 6.2
        ("Required Structures and Data") of the SMBIOS v2.7
        Specification. )
      
      Use the Manufacturer Name (aka System Vendor) name.
      Print Board Name only when it is present.
      
      Before the fix:
        (i) dmesg output: DMI: /ProLiant DL380 G6, BIOS P62 01/29/2011
       (ii) oops output:  Pid: 2170, comm: bash Not tainted 2.6.38-rc4+ #3 /ProLiant DL380 G6
      
      After the fix:
        (i) dmesg output: DMI: HP ProLiant DL380 G6, BIOS P62 01/29/2011
       (ii) oops output:  Pid: 2278, comm: bash Not tainted 2.6.38-rc4+ #4 HP ProLiant DL380 G6

      x86, ioapic: Don't warn about non-existing IOAPICs if we have none · 678301ec
      Paul Bolle authored
      mp_find_ioapic() prints errors like:
      
          ERROR: Unable to locate IOAPIC for GSI 13
      
      if it can't find the IOAPIC that manages that specific GSI. I
      see errors like that at every boot of a laptop that apparently
      doesn't have any IOAPICs.
      
      But if there are no IOAPICs it doesn't seem to be an error that
      none can be found. A solution that gets rid of this message is
      to directly return if nr_ioapics (still) is zero. (But keep
      returning -1 in that case, so nothing breaks from this change.)
      
      The call chain that generates this error is:
      
      pnpacpi_allocated_resource()
          case ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_IRQ:
              pnpacpi_parse_allocated_irqresource()
                  acpi_get_override_irq()
                       mp_find_ioapic()

      x86: Fix section mismatch in LAPIC initialization · 2fb270f3

      Additionally doing things conditionally upon smp_processor_id()
      being zero is generally a bad idea, as this means CPU 0 cannot
      be offlined and brought back online later again.
      
      While there may be other places where this is done, I think adding
      more of those should be avoided so that some day SMP can really
      become "symmetrical".
