The new processor was never brought up, its bit is only set in
cpu_possible_map, but not in present map.
...
if (boot_error) {
/* Try to put things back the way they were before ...
*/
unmap_cpu_to_logical_apicid(cpu);
cpu_clear(cpu, cpu_callout_map); /* was set here
(do_boot_cpu()) */
cpu_clear(cpu, cpu_initialized); /* was set by
cpu_init() */
cpucount--;
} else {
x86_cpu_to_apicid[cpu] = apicid;
cpu_set(cpu, cpu_present_map); <=====================
}
...
So if someone tries to boot a CPU up first time during runtime it always
fails this check.
