Some of the data and insight I've gleamed out of my pSeries system. I
don't really have answers, but perhaps a hint that will help someone
else identify the cause, or point me in a particular direction. :-)
Booting the system seems mostly OK with maxcpus=1, though this INFO
message appears on the console. (This does repeat after a while..) :
INFO: task irq/16-IPI:3 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this
message.

Booting with maxcpus=2 (or just booting by default) hangs momentarily after
the "Processor 1 found. Brought up 2 CPUs" message gets posted. Cpu0 appears
to get stuck in csd_lock_wait, but it is actually waiting for the completion
of "on_each_cpu(snapshot_tb_and_purr, NULL, 1);". The state of cpu1 after
punching reset to invoke xmon is:

Adding some debug/instrumentation to raw_local_irq_restore is next on my list..
