Hello,
after upgrading to v6.6.24 from v6.6.23 some old boxes (i686; Intel
Celeron M) stop to boot:
They hang after:
Decompressing Linux... Parsing ELF... No relocation needed... done.
Booting the kernel (entry_offset: 0x00000000).
After some minutes they reboot.
I bisected this down to
commit bebb5af001dc6cb4f505bb21c4d5e2efbdc112e2

x86/mpparse: Register APIC address only once
[ Upstream commit f2208aa12c27bfada3c15c550c03ca81d42dcac2 ]
The APIC address is registered twice. First during the early
detection and
afterwards when actually scanning the table for APIC IDs. The APIC
and
topology core warn about the second attempt.
Restrict it to the early detection call.

Reverting this commit in v6.6.24 solves the problem.
