Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:

 - Fix a secondary CPUs enumeration regression caused by creative MADT
   APIC table entries on certain systems.

 - Fix a race in the NOP-patcher that can spuriously trigger crashes on
   bootup.

 - Fix a bootup failure regression caused by the parallel bringup code,
   caused by firmware inconsistency between the APIC initialization
   states of the boot and secondary CPUs, on certain systems.
