[PATCH] i386 cpu hotplug: don't access freed memory
i386 CPU init code accesses freed init memory when booting a newly-started processor after CPU hotplug. The cpu_devs array is searched to find the vendor and it contains pointers to freed data. Fix that by: 1. Zeroing entries for freed vendor data after bootup. 2. Changing Transmeta, NSC and UMC to all __init[data]. 3. Printing a warning (once only) and setting this_cpu to a safe default when the vendor is not found. This does not change behavior for AMD systems. They were broken already but no error was reported.
