Subject[PATCH 1/7] x86: Limit the number of processor bootup messages
With a large number of processors in a system there is an excessive amount
of messages sent to the system console. It's estimated that with 4096
processors in a system, and the console baudrate set to 56K, the startup
messages will take about 84 minutes to clear the serial port.

This set of patches limits the number of repetitious messages which contain
no additional information. Much of this information is obtainable from the
/proc and /sysfs. Most of the messages are also sent to the kernel log
buffer as KERN_DEBUG messages so it can be used to examine more closely any
details specific to a processor.

The list of message transformations....

For system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING:

[ 18.669304] Booting Node 0, Processors 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Ok.
[ 19.321065] Booting Node 1, Processors 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Ok.
[ 20.065325] Booting Node 2, Processors 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 Ok.
..
[ 117.153053] Booting Node 63, Processors 1016 1017 1018 1019 1020 1021 1022 1023 Ok.
[ 117.952235] Brought up 1024 CPUs

Timing shows that with NO bootup messages, it takes only slightly less time
so printing adds very little overhead:

[ 18.670219] Booting all processors
[ 117.180248] Brought up 1024 CPUs

For Processor Information printout, the specifics of CPU0 are printed and
then at the end of the bootup sequence, a summary is printed:

The following lines have been removed:

CPU: Physical Processor ID:
CPU: Processor Core ID:
CPU %d/0x%x -> Node %d

The following lines will only be printed if unusual (state):

CPU %d is now offline (system_state == RUNNING)

The following lines will only be printed in debug mode:

Initializing CPU#%d

The following lines are only printed for the first cpu:

CPU0: Hyper-Threading is disabled
CPU0: Thermal monitoring enabled
CPU0: <cache line sizes>
