On AMD processors, we need to allocate a data structure per Northbridge
to handle certain events.
On CPU initialization, we need to query the Northbridge id and check
whether the structure is already allocated or not. We use the
amd_get_nb_id() function to request the Northbridge identification.
The recent cleanup of the CPU online/offline initialization introduced
a bug. AMD cpu initialization is invoked on CPU_UP_PREPARE callback.
This is before the CPU Northbridge id is calculated. Therefore no
processor had a Northbridge structure allocated except the boot
processor. That was causing bogus NB event scheduling.
This patch uses the CPU_ONLINE callback to initialize the AMD
Northbridge structure. This way amd_get_nb_id() returns valid
information.
The x86_cpu_up() callback was added. Could not call it cpu_online
because of existing macro.
