SubjectRe: [PATCH 0/4] Fix how CPUs are enumerated when there's more than 255 CPUs

I really don't see why you cannot provide simple helpers that avoids
the churn on code that doesn't require this new feature. It just makes
the code hard(er) to read, and unnecessarily convoluted. ACPI doesn't
need more of that, really.

I've come up with this (on top of your series):

In my view, this makes the change a lot more palatable, and it
can fit in exactly two patches:

1) add the acpi_subtable_proc stuff with the compatibility helpers
2) change arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c to do whatever you want it
to do

It will be a lot easier to review and to verify.

Thanks,

M.
