You also need to move the call to smp_boot_cpus() below the
clear_bit(...) line in smp_init(). Without it, my Wildfire doesn't get
past the while(wait_init_idle) loop - seems all of the CPUs have already
done their work before the mask is set. Besides, it's the right place
for it anyway. I'd generate a patch, but my system is bogged down in a
benchmark for the next couple of hours. If someone says so, I'll
generate the patch after that...
