The issue was found on the platform that using "Multiprocessor Wakeup Structure"[1] to startup secondary CPU, which is usually used by encrypted guest. When restrict boot time CPU to 1 with the kernel parameter "maxcpus=1" and bring other CPUs online later, there will be a kernel panic. The variable acpi_mp_wake_mailbox, which holds the virtual address of the MP Wakeup Structure mailbox, will be set as read-only after init. If the first AP gets online later, after init, the attempt to update the variable results in panic. But it is worth noting that the memremap() function that initializes the variable cannot be moved into acpi_parse_mp_wake() because memremap() is not yet functional at this point in the boot process. [1] Details about the MP Wakeup structure can be found in ACPI v6.4, in the "Multiprocessor Wakeup Structure" section.
