In commit 0de51088, we introduced the
use of acpi-cpufreq on VIA/Centaur CPU's by removing a vendor check for
VENDOR_INTEL.  However, as it turns out, at least the Nano CPU's also
need the PDC (processor driver capabilities) handshake in order to
activate the methods required for acpi-cpufreq.

Since arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc() contains another vendor check for
Intel, the PDC is not initialized on VIA CPU's.  The resulting behavior
of a current mainline kernel on such systems is:  acpi-cpufreq
loads and it indicates CPU frequency changes.  However, the CPU stays at
a single frequency

This trivial patch ensures that init_intel_pdc() is called on Intel and
VIA/Centaur CPU's alike.

arch_acpi_processor_cleanup_pdc() in x86 and ia64 results in memory allocated
for _PDC objects that is never freed and will cause memory leak in case of
physical CPU remove and add. Patch fixes the memory leak by freeing the
objects soon after _PDC is evaluated.

991528d7
(ACPI: Processor native C-states using MWAIT)
started passing C2C3_FFH to _PDC to tell the BIOS
that Linux supports MWAIT for deep C-states.

However, we should first double check with the hardware
that it actually supports MWAIT before potentially exposing
a BIOS bug of an MWAIT _CST on HW that doesn't support MWAIT.

cpu_data is currently an array defined using NR_CPUS.  This means that
we overallocate since we will rarely really use maximum configured cpus.
When NR_CPU count is raised to 4096 the size of cpu_data becomes
3,145,728 bytes.

These changes were adopted from the sparc64 (and ia64) code.  An
additional field was added to cpuinfo_x86 to be a non-ambiguous cpu
index.  This corresponds to the index into a cpumask_t as well as the
per_cpu index.  It's used in various places like show_cpuinfo().

cpu_data is defined to be the boot_cpu_data structure for the NON-SMP
case.

Linux invokes the AML _PDC method (Processor Driver Capabilities)
to tell the BIOS what features it can handle.  While the ACPI
spec says nothing about the OS invoking _PDC multiple times,
doing so with changing bits seems to hopelessly confuse the BIOS
on multiple platforms up to and including crashing the system.

Factor out the _PDC invocation so Linux invokes it only once.
