Thanks for the testing. Can I ask you to do one further test: apply the
series only as far as patch 6/8 'x86/smpboot: Support parallel startup
of secondary CPUs'.

That will do the new startup asm sequence where each CPU finds its own
per-cpu data so it *could* work in parallel, but doesn't actually do
the bringup in parallel yet.

Does your box have a proper serial port?
