For us to be able to boot a 16P system it is necessary for us to apply a patch
from Andi Kleen.

patch to allow 16P booting

I can't find the exact thread that discusses this issue. It was a wide ranging
discussion across many mailing lists (discuss@x86-64.org, linuxbios, lkml)
Comment 2 Hubert Mantel 2005-09-26 15:32:39 UTC 
Andi, since this patch comes from you and is x86_64 specific, should I commit
this to the SP3 branch?
