I missed fixing this one up. That's done now.

I agree - the unified restriction turns out only to be of interest to archaeologists.
I've ripped it out.

I'm not sure why this one is a WARN_ON_ONCE() and the other isn't - both mean the PPTT
table is missing CPUs, but this looks like leftover debug. I'll drop it.

Yup, I've done that in the previous one It's not otherwise done in this file - lets see if
someone cares strongly the other way.
