[Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86: introduce and use prefill_possible_map()



With the larger default NR_CPUS config setting (and the more with
build time settings exceeding this default) the wasting of memory (and
potentially other resources) just because cpu_possible_map doesn't get
set up properly increases. Use Linux' (accordingly modified to fit
Xen) prefill_possible_map() to overcome this.

This makes necessary an adjustment to tasklet initialization (which
must not happen before cpu_possible_map is guaranteed to be fully set
up - according to my static code analysis this was a problem on ia64
anyway).

Tracing code also needed a minor adjustment, as it still had a simple
counted loop accessing per-CPU data in its body.
