On one machine (i386 UP) - the others (i386 SMP and x86_64 SMP) having no trouble at all. Some years ago, the life-cycle of boot_cpu_data was rather convoluted, and different on UP from SMP: perhaps it still is, and that's why the difference. But I've not delved deeper, expecting you or Andi to grasp it a lot quicker. (I never tried -mm2, so wouldn't have noticed if that patch was in -mm2.)
