To wake up the AP the control processor writes the APIC ID of AP, the wakeup vector and the ACPI_MP_WAKE_COMMAND_WAKEUP command into the mailbox. Current implementation doesn't consider the case which restricts boot time CPU bringup to 1 with the kernel parameter "maxcpus=1" and brings other CPUs online later from user space as it sets acpi_mp_wake_mailbox to read-only after init. So when the first AP is tried to brought online after init, the attempt to update the variable results in a kernel panic. The memremap() call that initializes the variable cannot be moved into acpi_parse_mp_wake() because memremap() is not functional at that point in the boot process. Also as the APs might never be brought up, keep the memremap() call in acpi_wakeup_cpu() so that the operation only takes place when needed.
