2.6.9 kexec patch adds a call to find_isa_irq_pin in disable_IO_APIC.
But find_isa_irq_pin is marked __init on x86-64, which leads to
kernel panic. This patch should fix it.

Yup, there are several such fixups needed.  See
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.9-rc4/2.6.9-rc4-mm1/broken-out/assign_irq_vector-section-fix.patch.

If you're testing kexec you might be better off using 2.6.9-rc4-mm1 (minus
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.9-rc4/2.6.9-rc4-mm1/broken-out/optimize-profile-path-slightly.patch)
because it has the latest kexec version (it had better be!) and whatever
fixups people have found against it.

Andrew,
 This is the x86-64 counterpart of the x86 patch I pushed
into mainline (mistakingly instead of -mm) last week.
Looks good to me.
