[PATCH] x86/apic: Get rid of apic_version[] array. Save up to 128k

From: Denys Vlasenko
Date: Tue Sep 13 2016 - 14:12:50 EST


This array is [MAX_LOCAL_APIC], and MAX_LOCAL_APIC can easily be up to 32k.

The "APIC version mismatch" message, which should trigger when two different
APIC versions in different CPUs are seen, is in kernel since 2009 and no one
is hitting it.

Replace the array with a single variable, u8 boot_cpu_apic_version.

(Why u8?
APIC version values as of year 2016 are no larger than 0x1f on all known CPUs.
Version field in the APIC register is 8 bit wide - not likely
to overflow byte range in foreseeable future.)

"APIC version mismatch" check is not removed.

This is the alternative patch for
"x86/apic: Use byte array apic_version[], not int array" one.
