Here's what we have now.

I've refcounted the warm reset vector thing which should fix the
hotplug case, although I need to check it gets torn down in the error
cases correctly.

With the X2APIC global variable thing fixed, the new states can be
immediately before CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU as we originally wanted. I've
fixed up the bringup_nonboot_cpus() loop to bring an appropriate number
of CPUs to those "CPUHP_BP_PARALLEL_DYN" dynamic parallel pre-bringup
states in parallel.

We spent a while vacillating about how to add the new states, because
of the existing special-case hackery in bringup_cpu() for the
CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU case.

The irq_lock_sparse() and the idle_thread_get() from there might
actually be needed in *earlier* states for platforms which do parallel
bringup.... so do we add similar wrappers in kernel/cpu.c for *all* of
the pre-bringup states, having hard-coded them? Then let the arch
provide a config symbol for whether it really wants them or not? That
seemed kind of horrid, so I went for the simple option of just letting
the arch register the CPUHP_BP_PARALLEL_DYN states the normal way with
its own functions to be called directly, and the loop in
bringup_nonboot_cpus() can then operate directly on whether they exist
in the state table or not, for which there is precedent already.

That means I needed to export idle_thread_get() for the pre-bringup
state functions to use too. I'll also want to add the irq_lock_sparse()
into my final patch but frankly, that's the least of my worries about
that patch right now.

It's also fairly much a no-brainer to splitting up the x86
native_cpu_up() into the four separate phases that I had got separate
timings for previously. We can do that just as a "cleanup" with no
functional change.

So I'm relatively happy at least that far, as preparatory work...

That's the generic part mostly done, and the fun part is where we turn
back to x86 and actually try to split out those four phases of
native_cpu_up() to happen in parallel.

We store initial_stack and initial_gs for "the" AP that is coming up,
in global variables. It turns out that the APs don't like all sharing
the same stack as they come up in parallel, and weird behaviour ensues.

I think the only thing the AP has that can disambiguate it from other
APs is its CPUID, which it can get in its full 32-bit glory from
CPUID.0BH:EDX (and I think we can say we'll do parallel bringup *only*
of that leaf exists on the boot CPU).

So the trampoline code would need to find the logical CPU# and thus the
idle thread stack and per-cpu data with a lookup based on its APICID.
Perhaps just by trawling the various per-cpu data until it finds one
with the right apicid, much like default_cpu_present_to_apicid() does.

Oh, and ideally it needs to do this without using a real-mode stack,
because they won't like sharing that *either*.

(Actually they don't seem to mind in practice right now because the
only thing they all use it for is a 'call verify_cpu' and they all
place the *same* return address at the same place on the stack, but it
would be horrid to rely on that on *purpose* :)

So we'll continue to work on that in order to enable the parallel
bringup on x86, unless anyone has any cleverer ideas.

After that we'll get to the TSC sync, which is also not working in
parallel.
