87  * UP system running a SMP kernel.  The existing apply_alternatives()
88  * works fine for patching a SMP kernel for UP.

90  * The SMP alternative tables can be kept after boot and contain both
91  * UP and SMP versions of the instructions to allow switching back to
92  * SMP at runtime, when hotplugging in a new CPU, which is especially
93  * useful in virtualized environments.
94  *
95  * The very common lock prefix is handled as special case in a
96  * separate table which is a pure address list without replacement ptr
97  * and size information.  That keeps the table sizes small.
