Thomas Gleixner 3f874c9b2a x86/smp: Don't send INIT to non-present and non-booted CPUs
Vasant reported that kexec() can hang or reset the machine when it tries to
park CPUs via INIT. This happens when the kernel is using extended APIC,
but the present mask has APIC IDs >= 0x100 enumerated.

As extended APIC can only handle 8 bit of APIC ID sending INIT to APIC ID
0x100 sends INIT to APIC ID 0x0. That's the boot CPU which is special on
x86 and INIT causes the system to hang or resets the machine.

Prevent this by sending INIT only to those CPUs which have been booted
once.

Fixes: 45e34c8af5 ("x86/smp: Put CPUs into INIT on shutdown if possible")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
