| btw., i'm getting this warning on a test-box:
...
|
| [ 0.400000] Checking 'hlt' instruction... OK.
| [ 0.440000] SMP alternatives: switching to UP code
| [ 0.450000] debug: unmapping init memory 79c7a000..79c80000
|
| noop_default_phys_pkg_id() should return 0 i guess, and not generate a
| warning?

Ingo, I think the better would be to just make NOOP plain
NOOP without any kind of checking. Something like below
(I still can't fetch last/fresh -tip repo /remote point hangs/
for this so I've used interdiff).
Comments?
Btw, the base problem from dump you posted is that we've been
cheking only for read/write operations allowing all other ops
be called without any kind of check (and retrieving pkgid happened
there all the time just didn't trigger warn until we've substituted
apic driver completely). Using NOOP without warn should be more
convenient (all previous "dark" places in apic code already covered
with cpu_has_apic/disable_apic checks so the only risk we have --
is code that will appear in future).

x86,apic: allow noop operations to be called at any moment
As only apic noop is used we allow to use any operation
caller wants (and which of them noop driver supports of
course).
Initially it was reported by Ingo Molnar that apic noop
issue a warning (which is actually false positive and
should be eliminated). So lets NOOP be plain NOOP --
ie it should do nothing (and be fast) but attempting to
return sane values on read opertaions and be dumb on
write operations.
