H. Peter Anvin 83a7a2ad2a x86, alternatives: Use 16-bit numbers for cpufeature index 
We already have cpufeature indicies above 255, so use a 16-bit number
for the alternatives index.  This consumes a padding field and so
doesn't add any size, but it means that abusing the padding field to
create assembly errors on overflow no longer works.  We can retain the
test simply by redirecting it to the .discard section, however.

[ v3: updated to include open-coded locations ]

* Alternative inline assembly for SMP.
*
* The LOCK_PREFIX macro defined here replaces the LOCK and
* LOCK_PREFIX macros used everywhere in the source tree.
*
* SMP alternatives use the same data structures as the other
* alternatives and the X86_FEATURE_UP flag to indicate the case of a
* UP system running a SMP kernel. The existing apply_alternatives()
* works fine for patching a SMP kernel for UP.
*
* The SMP alternative tables can be kept after boot and contain both
* UP and SMP versions of the instructions to allow switching back to
* SMP at runtime, when hotplugging in a new CPU, which is especially
* useful in virtualized environments.
*
* The very common lock prefix is handled as special case in a
* separate table which is a pure address list without replacement ptr
* and size information. That keeps the table sizes small.
