x86: remove static boot_cpu_pda array v2



  * Remove the boot_cpu_pda array and pointer table from the data section.
    Allocate the pointer table and array during init.  do_boot_cpu()
    will reallocate the pda in node local memory and if the cpu is being
    brought up before the bootmem array is released (after_bootmem = 0),
    then it will free the initial pda.  This will happen for all cpus
    present at system startup.

    This removes 512k + 32k bytes from the data section.

For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.

Based on:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
    +   sched-devel/latest  .../mingo/linux-2.6-sched-devel.git
