I don't think we disable the BSP just so that we save memory and rather
because we hang in the kdump kernel otherwise, right?

This variable naming looks confusing, IMHO. It would probably be more
understandable if 'isbsp' was called 'boot_cpu' to denote that this is
the CPU we're booting on currently. The comment above it then explains
that it is an AP and it might also refer to the issue why we're doing
that.

Visible comment, so needs a bit of correcting:
"ACPI: We're not booting on the BSP; BSP %d/0x%x ignored."

Thanks.
