Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/7] x86/boot: Moorestown patch set based on
 platform_set abstraction

Based on platform_setup patchset posted by tglx (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/8/21/358)

These Moorestown patches have become much simplified once ported to the new
platform_setup layer. 

Now the platform feature flags are less useful, in fact they
are only used in separating ioapic and 8259 now, so once the interrupt
controller code is drivernized, we would not need the platform feature flags
in the core.

Thanks,

Jacob
