[PATCH] x86: fix broken SMP boot sequence
Recent GDT changes broke the SMP boot sequence if the booting CPU is numbered anything other than zero. There's also a subtle source of error in that the boot time CPU now uses cpu_gdt_table (which is actually the GDT for booting CPUs in head.S). This patch fixes both problems by making GDT descriptors themselves allocated from a per_cpu area and switching to them in cpu_init(), which now means that cpu_gdt_table is exclusively used for booting CPUs again.
