fix boot panic caused by offline CPUs
PATCH 1/1 fix boot panic caused by offline CPUs
This fixes a regression introduced by 2c6e6db41f01b6b4eb98809350827c9678996698 "Minimize per_cpu reservations." That patch incorrectly used information about what CPUs are possible that was not yet initialized by ACPI. The end result was that per_cpu structures for offline CPUs were not initialized causing a NULL pointer reference.
Since we cannot do the full acpi_boot_init() call any earlier, the simplest fix is to just parse the MADT for SAPIC entries early to find the CPU info. This should also allow for some cleanup of the code added by the "Minimize per_cpu reservations". This patch just fixes the regressions, the cleanup will come in a later patch.

Note that this approach is similar to (but not an exact copy of) the x86 approach of doing an early parse of the MADT for somewhat similar reasons. See the x86 version of setup_arch() and drill down into early_acpi_boot_init() as needed.
