[   12.692036] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!

We have the insn 0x43ffff80 in IIR but from IAOQ we should have:
   4025d150:   0f f3 20 df     ldd,s r19(r31),r31
   4025d154:   0f 9f 00 9c     ldw r31(ret0),ret0
   4025d158:   bf 80 20 58     cmpb,*<> r0,ret0,4025d18c <irq_exit+0xcc>

Cpu0 has just completed running parisc_setup_cache_timing:

[    2.429981] Releasing cpu 1 now, hpa=fffffffffffa2000
[    2.635751] CPU(s): 2 out of 2 PA8500 (PCX-W) at 440.000000 MHz online
[    2.726692] Setting cache flush threshold to 1024 kB
[    2.729932] Not-handled unaligned insn 0x43ffff80
[    2.798114] Setting TLB flush threshold to 140 kB
[    2.928039] Unaligned handler failed, ret = -1

From the backtrace, cpu1 is in smp_callin:

void __init smp_callin(void)
{
       int slave_id = cpu_now_booting;

       smp_cpu_init(slave_id);
       preempt_disable();

       flush_cache_all_local(); /* start with known state */
       flush_tlb_all_local(NULL);

       local_irq_enable();  /* Interrupts have been off until now */

       cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

So, it has just flushed its caches and the TLB. It would seem either the
flushes in parisc_setup_cache_timing or smp_callin have corrupted kernel
memory.

The attached patch reworks parisc_setup_cache_timing to remove the races
in setting the cache and TLB flush thresholds. It also corrects the
number of bytes flushed in the TLB calculation.

The patch flushes the cache and TLB on cpu0 before starting the
secondary processors so that they are started from a known state.

Tested with a few reboots on c8000.
