Such a crash is possible if the CPU in this system is a 64-bit
processor which doesn't support NX (ie, old Intel P4 -based64-bit
processors).

Certainly, if we support such processors, then we should start with
_PAGE_NX initially clear in __supported_pte_flags, and then set it once
we've established that the processor does indeed support NX.  That will
prevent early_ioremap - or anything else - from trying to set it.

The simple fix is to simply call check_efer() earlier.

while fixing a different bug i moved the call to vmi_init before
early params could be parsed.

This broke the vmi specific commandline parameters.
Fix that, by moving vmi initialization after kernel has got a chance to
parse early parameters.

Allow x86 to support a built-in kernel command line.  The built-in
command line can override the one provided by the boot loader, for
those cases where the boot loader is broken or it is difficult
to change the command line in the the boot loader.

OK. This version changes absolutely nothing if CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not
set (the default).  Also, no space is appended even when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL
is set, but the builtin string is empty.  This is less sloppy all the way
around, IMHO.

Note that I use the same option names as on other arches for
this feature.

Jeff Chua reported that booting a !bigsmp kernel on a 16-way box
hangs silently.

this is a long-standing issue, smp start AP cpu could check the
apic id >=8 etc before trying to start it.

achieve this by moving the def_to_bigsmp check later and skip the
apicid id > 8

The lowmem mapping table created by VMI need not depend on max_low_pfn
at all.  Instead we now create an extra large mapping which covers all
possible lowmem instead of the physical ram that is actually available.

This allows the vmi initialization to be done before max_low_pfn could
be computed. We also move the vmi_init code very early in the boot process
so that nobody accidentally breaks the fixmap dependancy.

On a x86-64 machine (nothing special I could encounter) I had the problem that
crashkernel reservation with the usual "64M@16M" failed. While debugging that,
I encountered that dma32_reserve_bootmem() reserves a memory region which is in
that area.

Because dma32_reserve_bootmem() does not rely on a specific offset but
crashkernel does, it makes sense to move the dma32_reserve_bootmem()
reservation down a bit. I tested that patch and it works without problems. I
don't see any negative effects of that move, but maybe I oversaw something ...

While we strictly don't need that patch in 2.6.27 because we have the
automatic, dynamic offset detection, it makes sense to also include it here
because:

  - it's easier to get it in -stable then,
  - many people are still used to the 'crashkernel=...@16M' syntax,
  - not everybody may be using a reloatable kernel.

This patch removes the need of the crashkernel=...@offset parameter to define
a fixed offset for crashkernel reservation. That feature can be used together
with a relocatable kernel where the kexec-tools relocate the kernel and
get the actual offset from /proc/iomem.

The use case is a kernel where the .text+.data+.bss is after 16M physical
memory (debug kernel with lockdep on x86_64 can cause that) which caused a
major pain in autoconfiguration in our distribution.

Also, that patch unifies crashdump architectures a bit since IA64 has
that semantics from the very beginning of the kdump port.

Ying Huang would like setup_data to be reserved, but not included in the
no save range.

Here we try to modify the e820 table to reserve that range early.
also add that in early_res in case bootloader messes up with the ramdisk.

other solution would be
1. add early_res_to_highmem...
2. early_res_to_e820...
but they could reserve another type memory wrongly, if early_res has some
resource reserved early, and not needed later, but it is not removed from
early_res in time. Like the RAMDISK (already handled).
