v2: Delete patch to remove SCRATCH 5 NMI support check for
    UV2 and UV3k systems with old NMI support function.

v3: Fix check BIOS NMI support mistake in Patch 1.

v4: Clarify commit messages and comments in all 3 patches.
    We hope this addresses the issues raised by Thomas Gleixner in
	https://lore.kernel.org/r/87zgl02w6v.ffs@tglx

    Update NMI Handler for UV5
	Update NMI handler for UV5 hardware. A platform register
	changed, and UV5 only uses one of the two NMI methods used on
	previous hardware.

    Update TSC sync state for UV5

	The UV5 platform synchronizes the TSCs among all chassis, and
	will not proceed to OS boot without achieving synchronization.
	Previous UV platforms provided a register indicating
	successful synchronization.  This is no longer available on
	UV5.  On this platform TSC_ADJUST should not be reset by the
	kernel.

    Log gap hole end size
	Show value of gap end in the kernel log which equates to
	number of physical address bits used by system.
