x86, cleanup: Remove obsolete boot_cpu_id variable
boot_cpu_id is there for historical reasons and was renamed to boot_cpu_physical_apicid in patch: c70dcb7 x86: change boot_cpu_id to boot_cpu_physical_apicid However, there are some remaining occurrences of boot_cpu_id that are never touched in the kernel and thus its value is always 0. This patch removes boot_cpu_id completely. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> LKML-Reference: <1279731838-1522-8-git-send-email-robert.richter@amd.com> Signed-off-by: H.
