x86/smp: Don't send INIT to non-present and non-booted CPUs



Vasant reported that kexec() can hang or reset the machine when it tries to
park CPUs via INIT. This happens when the kernel is using extended APIC,
but the present mask has APIC IDs >= 0x100 enumerated.

As extended APIC can only handle 8 bit of APIC ID sending INIT to APIC ID
0x100 sends INIT to APIC ID 0x0. That's the boot CPU which is special on
x86 and INIT causes the system to hang or resets the machine.

Prevent this by sending INIT only to those CPUs which have been booted
once.

Fixes: 45e34c8a ("x86/smp: Put CPUs into INIT on shutdown if possible")
