Subject: lockdep issue booting v4.1 upstream kernel with >64 x86_64 CPUs

Hi Peter,

I am getting a minor issue trying to boot a lockdep enabled x86_64
kernel with >64 CPUs.

The kernel boots the first 64 CPUs without issues, but then complains
that lockdep wants to allocate memory while start_secondary ->
init_espfix_ap has IRQs disabled:

I think the correct fix may be to change one of the GFP masks in
init_espfix_ap(), but I am not 100% sure.

Thanks,
