[PATCH v4 1/2] x86/kexec: VMCLEAR vmcss on all cpus if necessary

Wed Nov 14 04:31:15 EST 2012
crash_clear_loaded_vmcss is added to VMCLEAR vmcss loaded on all
cpus. And when loading kvm_intel module, the function pointer will be
made valid.
The percpu variable vmclear_skipped is added to flag the case that
if loaded_vmcss_on_cpu list is being modified while the machine crashes
and doing kdump, the vmclear here can be skipped.
