Hi,

A partitioned ppc64 machine can have a boot cpuid anywhere from 0 to 31.
With the non linear cpu changes in 2.5.24 we must set up the initial task
to start on the boot cpu. (since it isnt always 0 now)

With this patch I am able to boot on cpus other than 0. I also tested
discontiguous cpuids:

# cat /proc/cpuinfo 
processor       : 2
cpu             : RS64-IV (sstar)
clock           : 601MHz
revision        : 0.0

processor       : 4
cpu             : RS64-IV (sstar)
clock           : 601MHz
revision        : 0.0

processor       : 6
cpu             : RS64-IV (sstar)
clock           : 601MHz
revision        : 0.0

timebase        : 601583219
machine         : CHRP IBM,7025-F80

So the non linear cpu stuff checks out OK. Nice work Rusty!

Anton
