Subject: [PATCH v5 15/16] x86: do MTRR/PAT setup on all secondary CPUs in parallel

Instead of serializing MTRR/PAT setup on the secondary CPUs in order
to avoid clobbering of static variables used by the setup process, put
those variables into a structure held on the stack and drop the
serialization.

This speeds up the start of secondary CPUs a little bit (on a small
system with 8 CPUs the time needed for starting the secondary CPUs was
measured to go down from about 60 milliseconds without this patch to
about 55 milliseconds with this patch applied).

Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@...e.com>
