A system isn't necessarily booted on physical processor 0 as this code
assumes.  Also the array happens to be allocated in .bss so it's zero
initialized anyway.  Systems which need to override this can do so in
their mp_ops-&gt;smp_setup() method.

<title>kernel/cpu.c: create a CPU_STARTING cpu_chain notifier</title>

<id>e545a6140b698b2494daf0b32107bdcc5e901390</id>
<content type='text'>
Right now, there is no notifier that is called on a new cpu, before the new
cpu begins processing interrupts/softirqs.
Various kernel function would need that notification, e.g. kvm works around
by calling smp_call_function_single(), rcu polls cpu_online_map.

The patch adds a CPU_STARTING notification. It also adds a helper function
that sends the message to all cpu_chain handlers.

Tested on x86-64.
All other archs are untested. Especially on sparc, I'm not sure if I got
it right.

It's not even passed on to smp_call_function() anymore, since that
was removed. So kill it.

It's never used and the comments refer to nonatomic and retry
interchangably. So get rid of it.

<title>mips: convert to generic helpers for IPI function calls</title>

This converts mips to use the new helpers for smp_call_function() and
friends, and adds support for smp_call_function_single(). Not tested,
but it compiles.

mips shares the same IPI for smp_call_function() and
smp_call_function_single(), since not all mips platforms have enough
available IPIs to support seperate setups.

<title>calibrate_delay() must be __cpuinit</title>

calibrate_delay() must be __cpuinit, not __{dev,}init.

I've verified that this is correct for all users.

While doing the latter, I also did the following cleanups:
- remove pointless additional prototypes in C files
- ensure all users #include &lt;linux/delay.h&gt;

This fixes the following section mismatches with CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n,
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1128d): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text.1:calibrate_delay (between 'check_cx686_slop' and 'set_cx86_reorder')
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x25102): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text.1:calibrate_delay (between 'smp_callin' and 'cpu_coregroup_map')
