commit 2a51fe08 upstream.

When a CPU is physically added to a system then the MADT table is not
updated.

If subsequently a kdump kernel is started on that physically added CPU then
the ACPI enumeration fails to provide the information for this CPU which is
now the boot CPU of the kdump kernel.

As a consequence, generic_processor_info() is not invoked for that CPU so
the number of enumerated processors is 0 and none of the initializations,
including the logical package id management, are performed.

We have code which relies on the correctness of the logical package map and
other information which is initialized via generic_processor_info().
Executing such code will result in undefined behaviour or kernel crashes.

This problem applies only to the kdump kernel because a normal kexec will
switch to the original boot CPU, which is enumerated in MADT, before
jumping into the kexec kernel.

The boot code already has a check for num_processors equal 0 in
prefill_possible_map(). We can use that check as an indicator that the
enumeration of the boot CPU did not happen and invoke generic_processor_info()
for it. That initializes the relevant data for the boot CPU and therefore
prevents subsequent failure.
