BTW, does this (
TARGET_CPUScpu_online_mask) not wreak havoc with systems with hot-pluggable CPUs (many Suns, etc...)? Wouldn;t it be better to make this a config option (like the optional PCI fixes for crappy BIOSs)?
? this is x86-only code. There is no hot-pluggable CPU support for Linux AFAIK. (But in any case, the code is basically ready for hot-pluggable CPUs, just take a few precautions and change cpu_online_mask and a couple of other things.)

OK, maybe the Sun example was not the best to give for this code... But if there are no hot-pluggable x86's around now (I think there are, but can not recollect who made 'm...) and nobody is complaining, then it is fine with me... I won't hot-unplug my BP6's CPU's anyway...
