fix this warning reported by Andrew Morton:
> arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/main.c: In function 'mtrr_bp_init':
> arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/main.c:1170: warning: 'extra_remove_base' may be used uninitialized in this function
the warning is bogus but the logic that prevents uninitialized use
is a bit convoluted so simplify it all.

Completely disable NOPL on 32 bits. It turns out that Microsoft
Virtual PC is so broken it can't even reliably *fail* in the presence
of NOPL.
This leaves the infrastructure in place but disables it
unconditionally.

Krzysztof found some old cyrix cpu where an mtrr-alike cpu feature was
not detected properly.
this one is based on Krzysztof' patch, and we call ->c_identify() in
early_identify_cpu.
need to call c_identify() for cpus without cpuid even earlier ...
v2: Krzysztof point out need to give cyrix another chance about cpuid
checking again, after ->c_identify() enables cpuid for it

The hardware virtualization technology evolves very fast. But currently
it's hard to tell if your CPU support a certain kind of HW technology
without digging into the source code.
The patch add a new catagory in "flags" under /proc/cpuinfo. Now "flags"
can indicate the (important) HW virtulization features the CPU supported
as well.
Current implementation just cover Intel VMX side.

Exception stacks are allocated each time a CPU is set online.
But the allocated space is never freed. Thus with one CPU hotplug
offline/online cycle there is a memory leak of 24K (6 pages) for
a CPU.
Fix is to allocate exception stacks only once -- when the CPU is
set online for the first time.

Krzysztof Helt found MTRR is not detected on k6-2
root cause:
we moved mtrr_bp_init() early for mtrr trimming,
and in early_detect we only read the CPU capability from cpuid,
so some cpu doesn't have that bit in cpuid.
So we need to add early_init_xxxx to preset those bit before mtrr_bp_init
for those earlier cpus.
this patch is for v2.6.27

The long noops ("NOPL") are supposed to be detected by family >= 6.
Unfortunately, several non-Intel x86 implementations, both hardware
and software, don't obey this dictum. Instead, probe for NOPL
directly by executing a NOPL instruction and see if we get #UD.

Use cpu/common.c on both 64-bit and 32-bit and remove cpu/common_64.c.
We started out with this linecount:
816 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common_64.c
805 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c
and the resulting common.c is 1197 lines long, so there's already
424 lines of code eliminated in this phase of the unification.
