Paul, any clue on what else to try here? The whole MTRR setup is
radically crazy but it's something we're stuck with (yay hardware) :/

So the issue is that we're doing wakeups from an offline CPU (very early
during bringup) and RCU (rightfully) complains about that. I thought
RCU_NONIDLE() was the magic incantation that makes RCU 'watch', but
clearly it's not enough here.
