[patch 03/28] cpu alloc: IA64 support

[Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com>]

Typical use of per cpu memory for a small system of 8G 8p 4node is less than
64k per cpu memory. This is increasing rapidly for larger systems where we can
get up to 512k or 1M of memory used for cpu storage.

The maximum size of the cpu area is 128MB of memory.

The cpu area is placed in region 5 with the kernel, vmemmap and vmalloc areas.
So with this version we are limited to PAGE_SIZEd mappings. The cpu area and the
vmemmap area could use a large TLB size.
