-gerrit commit c5ffb4f0fcb1bf57a6376234ecf411678080569c Author: Kyösti Mälkki <[email protected]> Date: Mon Dec 5 20:17:17 2011 +0200 Only BSP CPU writes CMOS in bootblock code CMOS accesses are not safe for multi-processor and only the BSP CPU should count reboots and test CMOS sanity. A questionable single byte CMOS read access from AP CPUs remains. AP CPUs should always select the same romstage prefix as BSP CPU.
