------------------- This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment. -------------------
commit 05e33fc20ea5e493a2a1e7f1d04f43cdf89f83ed upstream.
Delete the 10 msec delay between the INIT and SIPI when starting slave cpus. I can find no requirement for this delay. BIOS also has similar code sequences without the delay.
Removing the delay reduces boot time by 40 sec. Every bit helps.
