x86_64 genapic mechanism should be aware of machines that use physical APIC
mode regardless of how many clusters/processors are detected.
ACPI 3.0 FADT makes this determination very simple by providing a feature
flag "force_apic_physical_destination_mode" to state whether the machine
unconditionally uses physical APIC mode.
Unisys' next generation x86_64 ES7000 will need to utilize this FADT
feature flag in order to boot the x86_64 kernel in the correct APIC mode.
This patch has been tested on both x86_64 commodity and ES7000 boxes.

Port over a i386 kludge from rusty to x86-64
I don't think it is a full solution, but the upcomming smp bootup rewrite
will solve it.
This fixes BUGs at bootup on bigger x86-64 systems.

Only display physical id/siblings when there are siblings or dual core.
In 2.6.11 I accidentially broke it and it was always displaying these
fields But for compatibility to all these /proc parsers around it is better
to do it in the old way again.

Use the i386 PT_NOTE segment in x86_64 as well.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
