[PATCH] 2.4.1-ac1 UP-APIC/NMI watchdog fixes

From: Mikael Pettersson (mikpe@csd.uu.se)
Date: Thu Feb 01 2001 - 14:28:27 EST


This patch (against 2.4.1-ac1) contains the following fixes:
* UP-APIC linkage fix: nr_ioapics must be moved from io_apic.c to
  mpparse.c to permit linking the kernel in pure UP-APIC configs.
* NMI watchdog cleanups: mark setup_apic_nmi_watchdog() as __init,
  fix the K7 init code to not leave any perfctr MSR uninitialised,
  avoid having to check CPU type in NMI handler.
  (Yes, the merged wrmsr(,,-1) is safe for P6.)

Alan, please include this in -ac2.
