Tom Lendacky ac5292e9a2 x86/boot: Fix boot failure when SMP MP-table is based at 0
When crosvm is used to boot a kernel as a VM, the SMP MP-table is found
at physical address 0x0. This causes mpf_base to be set to 0 and a
subsequent "if (!mpf_base)" check in default_get_smp_config() results in
the MP-table not being parsed.  Further into the boot this results in an
oops when attempting a read_apic_id().

Add a boolean variable that is set to true when the MP-table is found.
Use this variable for testing if the MP-table was found so that even a
value of 0 for mpf_base will result in continued parsing of the MP-table.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
