SMP kernel panic: cpuid mismatch

Hi,

I'm not sure I should file a bug report since I got the impression the SMP
initialization code is not perfect and there could be a workaround.

Anyway, I just got a panic with a recent i386 SMP kernel (GENERIC + options
SMP and APIC_IO) on a Xeon Nehalem box.

The machine is based on a Supermicro X8DTL-iF mainboard
http://www.supermicro.nl/products/motherboard/QPI/5500/X8DTL-iF.cfm
with a single Xeon Nehalem E5530 (4 physical cores, 8 execution contexts)
and 12 GB memory.

I have copied the relevant part of the panic message:
