Applied patches to Linus' 4.3-rc4 (with none of our recently discussed
changes.) 

Result missing CPU is back!

I also tried the "cpu_init_udelay=1" with rc5 and that also gave me back
the missing CPU?  Previously I had tried "cpu_init_udelay=10000" and it
did not get missing CPU back (with rc3 or rc4).

I can do more testing if you need it.

Thanks,
Don
