ACPI has two descriptions of CPUs, one in the MADT/APIC table, the other
in the DSDT. Both are required. (ACPI 6.5's 8.4 "Declaring Processors"
says "Each processor in the system must be declared in the ACPI
namespace"). Having two descriptions allows firmware authors to get
this wrong.

If CPUs are described in the MADT/APIC, they will be brought online
early during boot. Once the register_cpu() calls are moved to ACPI,
they will be based on the DSDT description of the CPUs. When CPUs are
missing from the DSDT description, they will end up online, but not
registered.

Add a helper that runs after acpi_init() has completed to register
CPUs that are online, but weren't found in the DSDT. Any CPU that
is registered by this code triggers a firmware-bug warning and kernel
taint.

Qemu TCG only describes the first CPU in the DSDT, unless cpu-hotplug
is configured.

We should fix that as who likes warnings and taint :)
I dread to think how common this will turn out to be.
