- Add a new intr_event method ie_assign_cpu() that is invoked when the MI
code wishes to bind an interrupt source to an individual CPU. The MD
code may reject the binding with an error. If an assign_cpu function
is not provided, then the kernel assumes the platform does not support
binding interrupts to CPUs and fails all requests to do so.
- Bind ithreads to CPUs on their next execution loop once an interrupt
event is bound to a CPU. Only shared ithreads are bound. We currently
leave private ithreads for drivers using filters + ithreads in the
INTR_FILTER case unbound.
- A new intr_event_bind() routine is used to bind an interrupt event to
a CPU.
- Implement binding on amd64 and i386 by way of the existing pic_assign_cpu
PIC method.
- For x86, provide a 'intr_bind(IRQ, cpu)' wrapper routine that looks up
an interrupt source and binds its interrupt event to the specified CPU.
MI code can currently (ab)use this by doing:
intr_bind(rman_get_start(irq_res), cpu);
however, I plan to add a truly MI interface (probably a bus_bind_intr(9))
where the implementation in the x86 nexus(4) driver would end up calling
intr_bind() internally.

receivers from being given interrupts if any CPUs in the system were not
tagged as interrupt receivers that I introduced when switching the x86
interrupt code to track CPUs via FreeBSD CPU IDs rather than local APIC
IDs. In practice this only affects systems with Hyperthreading (though
disabling HTT in the BIOS would workaround the issue) as that is the only
case currently where one can have CPUs that aren't tagged as interrupt
receivers. On a Dell SC1425 test box with 2 x Xeon w/ HTT (so 4 logical
CPUs of which 2 were interrupt receivers) the result was that all
device interrupts were sent to CPU 0.

different "platforms" on x86 machines. The existing code already handles
having two platforms: ACPI and legacy. However, the existing approach was
rather hardcoded and difficult to extend. These changes take the approach
that each x86 hardware platform should provide its own nexus(4) driver (it
can inherit most of its behavior from the default legacy nexus(4) driver)
which is responsible for probing for the platform and performing
appropriate platform-specific setup during attach (such as adding a
platform-specific bus device). This does mean changing the x86 platform
busses to no longer use an identify routine for probing, but to move that
logic into their matching nexus(4) driver instead.
- Make the default nexus(4) driver in nexus.c on i386 and amd64 handle the
legacy platform. It's probe routine now returns BUS_PROBE_GENERIC so it
can be overriden.
- Expose a nexus_init_resources() routine which initializes the various
resource managers so that subclassed nexus(4) drivers can invoke it from
their attach routine.
- The legacy nexus(4) driver explicitly adds a legacy0 device in its
attach routine.
- The ACPI driver no longer contains an new-bus identify method. Instead
it exposes a public function (acpi_identify()) which is a probe routine
that the MD nexus(4) drivers can use to probe for ACPI. All of the
probe logic in acpi_probe() is now moved into acpi_identify() and
acpi_probe() is just a stub.
- On i386 and amd64, an ACPI-specific nexus(4) driver checks for ACPI via
acpi_identify() and claims the nexus0 device if the probe succeeds. It
then explicitly adds an acpi0 device in its attach routine.
- The legacy(4) driver no longer knows anything about the acpi0 device.
- On ia64 if acpi_identify() fails you basically end up with no devices.
This matches the previous behavior where the old acpi_identify() would
fail to add an acpi0 device again leaving you with no devices.

HP machines whose BIOS only provide an SMAP when invoked from real mode.
On such machines the loader will be able to query the SMAP successfully
due to the recent BTX changes, but the kernel will not.
One thing I'm not sure of is if we can skip the INT 12h probe altogether
if we have the SMAP from the loader as it seems that we do the INT 12h
probe to setup enough state so we can use vm86 to call the BIOS.

PhysMask fields based on the number of physical address bits supported
by the current CPU. The old code assumed 36 bits on i386 and 40 bits on
amd64. In truth, all Intel CPUs up until recently used 36 bits (a newer
Intel CPU uses 38 bits) and all the Opteron CPUs used 40 bits.
In at least one case (the new Intel CPU) having the size of the mask field
wrong resulted in writing questionable values into the MTRR registers on
the application processors (BSP as well if you modify the MTRRs via
memcontrol or running X, etc.). The result of the questionable physmask
was that all of memory was apparently treated as uncached rather than
write-back resulting in a very significant performance hit.
Fix this by constructing a run-time mask for the PhysBase and PhysMask
fields based on the number of physical address bits supported by the CPU.
All 64-bit capable CPUs provide a count of PA bits supported via the
0x80000008 extended CPUID feature, so use that if it is available. If that
feature is not available, then assume 36 PA bits.
While I'm here, expand the (now-unused) macros for the PhysBase and
PhysMask fields to the current largest possible value (52 PA bits).
