Subject: [patch 0/2] x86, UV: fixups for configurations with a large number of nodes.

We need the __uv_hub_info structure to contain the correct values for
n_val, gpa_mask, and lowmem_remap_*.  The first patch in the series
accomplishes this.   Could this be included in the stable tree as well.
Without this patch, booting a large configuration hits a problem where
the upper bits of the gnode affect the pnode and the bau will not operate.

The second patch cleans up the broadcast assist unit code a small bit.

Thanks,
Robin Holt
