Now we've adjusted all the code, we can simply set switcher_addr to
wherever it needs to go below the fixmaps, rather than asserting that
it should be so.

With large NR_CPUS and PAE, people were hitting the "mapping switcher
would thwack fixmap" message.

ie. SHARED_SWITCHER_PAGES == 1.  It is well under a page, and it's a
minor simplification: it's nice to have *one* simplification in a
patch series!

We currently use the whole top PGD entry for the switcher, but that's
hitting the fixmap in some configurations (mainly, large NR_CPUS).
Introduce a variable, currently set to the constant.

GDT_ENTRY_INIT is static initializer of desc_struct.

We already have similar macro GDT_ENTRY() but it's static
initializer for u64 and it cannot be used for desc_struct.

I don't really notice it (except to begrudge the extra vertical
space), but Ingo does.  And he pointed out that one excuse of lguest
is as a teaching tool, it should set a good example.

<title>x86: cleanup some remaining usages of NR_CPUS where s/b nr_cpu_ids</title>

Impact: Reduce future system panics due to cpumask operations using NR_CPUS

Insure that code does not look at bits &gt;= nr_cpu_ids as when cpumasks are
allocated based on nr_cpu_ids, these extra bits will not be defined.

Also some other minor updates:

   * change in to use cpu accessor function set_cpu_present() instead of
     directly accessing cpu_present_map w/cpu_clear() [arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c]

   * use cpumask_of() instead of &amp;cpumask_of_cpu() [arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c]

   * optimize some cpu_mask_to_apicid_and functions.

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:

a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
