Ok here it is.

With refactoring of wake_cpu macros the 32bit code in tip doesn't 
execute generic_apic_probe if CONFIG_X86_32_NON_STANDARD is not set.

Even on a x86 STANDARD cpu we need to execute the generic_apic_probe
function, as we rely on this function to execute the update_genapic
quirk which initilizes apic->wakeup_cpu. 

Failing to do so results in we making a call to a null function in do_boot_cpu.

The stack trace without the patch goes like this.

I think we should call generic_apic_probe unconditionally for 32 bit now.
