Impact: fix early crash on LinuxBIOS systems Kevin O'Connor reported that Coreboot aka LinuxBIOS tries to put mptable somewhere very high, well above max_low_pfn (below which BIOSes generally put the mptable), causing a panic. The BIOS will probably be changed to be compatible with older Linus versions, but nevertheless the MP-spec does not forbid an MP-table in arbitrary system RAM, so make sure it all works even if the table is in an unexpected place. Check physptr with max_low_pfn * PAGE_SIZE.
