Matthew,
would you mind testing the current pre-112? The problems you see may be
due to the IO-APIC code, but before I start blaming that let's fix the
other things to make sure it's really the IO_APIC changes.

This essentially disables the "clever" (or not-so-clever) SMP wakeup
function. Especially during bootup we can be woken up even before SMP has
even been initialized fully. It also switches the bug finding around
again.

So, does it boot again with pre-112-1, and if it does, is it stable for
you?
