Andy Lutomirski 4ba55e65f4 x86/mm/32: Load a sane CR3 before cpu_init() on secondary CPUs
For unknown historical reasons (i.e. Borislav doesn't recall),
32-bit kernels invoke cpu_init() on secondary CPUs with
initial_page_table loaded into CR3.  Then they set
current->active_mm to &init_mm and call enter_lazy_tlb() before
fixing CR3.  This means that the x86 TLB code gets invoked while CR3
is inconsistent, and, with the improved PCID sanity checks I added,
we warn.

Fix it by loading swapper_pg_dir (i.e. init_mm.pgd) earlier.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
