27-rc fails to boot up if configured to use modules.
Turns out vsmp_patch was marked __init, and vsmp_patch being the
pvops 'patch' routine for vsmp, a call to vsmp_patch just turns out
to execute a code page with series of 0xcc (POISON_FREE_INITMEM -- int3).
vsmp_patch has been marked with __init ever since pvops, however,
apply_paravirt can be called during module load causing calls to
freed memory location.
Since apply_paravirt can only be called during init/module load, make
vsmp_patch with "__init_or_module"

The function detect_vsmp_box is a void function in the PCI case.
Change the !PCI stub to void too.

vSMP detection: access pci config space early in boot to detect if the
system is a vSMPowered box, and cache the result in a flag, so that
is_vsmp_box() retrieves the value of the flag always.

Re-arrange set_vsmp_pv_ops so that pv_ops are set only if
the platform has capability to support paravirtualized irq ops

- Fix the the build breakage when PARAVIRT is defined
but PCI is not
This fixes problem reported at:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120525966600698&w=2
- Make is_vsmp_box() available even when PARAVIRT is not defined.
This is needed to determine if tsc's are reliable as a time source
even when PARAVIRT is not defined.
- split vsmp_init to use is_vsmp_box() and set_vsmp_pv_ops()
set_vsmp_pv_ops will do nothing if PCI is not enabled in the config.

is_vsmp_box() currently does not work on vSMPowered systems, as pci cfg
space is not read correctly -- This patch fixes it.

quad core 8 socket system will have apic id lifting.the apic id range could
be [4, 0x23]. and apic_is_clustered_box will think that need to three clusters
and that is larger than 2. So it is treated as a clustered_box.
and will get:
Marking TSC unstable due to TSCs unsynchronized
even if the CPUs have X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC set.
this quick fix will check if the cpu is from AMD.
but vsmp still needs that checking...
this patch is fix to make sure that vsmp not to be passed.
