[PATCH] i386 kdump boot cpu physical apicid fix
o Kdump second kernel boot fails after a system crash if second kernel
is UP and acpi=off and if crash occurred on a non-boot cpu.
o Issue here is that MP tables report boot cpu lapic id as 0 but second
kernel is booting on a different processor and MP table data is stale
in this context. Hence apic_id_registered() check fails in setup_local_APIC()
when called from APIC_init_uniprocessor().
o Problem is not seen if ACPI is enabled as in that case
boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from the LAPIC.
o Problem is not seen with SMP kernels as well because in this case also
boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from LAPIC. (smp_boot_cpus()).
o The problem is fixed by reading boot_cpu_physical_apicid from LAPIC
if it is a UP kernel and CRASH_DUMP is enabled.
