cpu_has_amd_erratum() is buggy, because it uses the per-cpu cpu_info
before it is filled by smp_store_boot_cpu_info() / smp_store_cpu_info().

If early microcode loading is enabled its collect_cpu_info_amd_early()
will fill -&gt;x86 and so the fallback to boot_cpu_data is not used. But
-&gt;x86_vendor was not filled and is still X86_VENDOR_INTEL resulting in
no errata fixes getting applied and my system hangs on boot.

Using cpu_info in cpu_has_amd_erratum() is wrong anyway: its only
caller init_amd() will have a struct cpuinfo_x86 as parameter and the
set_cpu_bug() that is controlled by cpu_has_amd_erratum() also only uses
that struct.

So pass the struct cpuinfo_x86 from init_amd() to cpu_has_amd_erratum()
and the broken fallback can be dropped.

[ Boris: Drop WARN_ON() since we're called only from init_amd() ]

<title>x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 files</title>

<id>148f9bb87745ed45f7a11b2cbd3bc0f017d5d257</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

The idea with those routines is to slowly phase them out and not call
them on anything else besides K8. They even have a check for that which,
when called too early, fails. Let me explain:

It gets the cpuinfo_x86 pointer from the per_cpu array and when this
happens for cpu0, before its boot_cpu_data has been copied back to the
per_cpu array in smp_store_boot_cpu_info(), we get an empty struct and
thus the check fails.

Use boot_cpu_data directly instead.

Pull x86 mm changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This is a huge set of several partly interrelated (and concurrently
  developed) changes, which is why the branch history is messier than
  one would like.

  The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed
  by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we
  create initial page tables.  In particular, rather than estimating how
  much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that
  memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we
  now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" --
  a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand.

  This has several advantages:

  1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data
     very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way
     early in the kernel startup).

  2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked
     from above the 4 GB limit.  This allows kdump to work on very large
     systems.

  3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's
     equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created
     by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks.

  The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X.

  Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you
  were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to
  __phys_addr()/__pa()."

Pull x86 cpu updates from Peter Anvin:
 "This is a corrected attempt at the x86/cpu branch, this time with the
  fixes in that makes it not break on KVM (current or past), or any
  other virtualizer which traps on this configuration.

  Again, the biggest change here is enabling the WC+ memory type on AMD
  processors, if the BIOS doesn't."

* 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  x86, kvm: Add MSR_AMD64_BU_CFG2 to the list of ignored MSRs
  x86, cpu, amd: Fix WC+ workaround for older virtual hosts
  x86, AMD: Enable WC+ memory type on family 10 processors
  x86, AMD: Clean up init_amd()
  x86/process: Change %8s to %s for pr_warn() in release_thread()
  x86/cpu/hotplug: Remove CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL dependency
