OK, so I disabled HT in the BIOS too, on my IVB-EX

My machine is profoundly unhappy though; and since I have no nr_cpus=
nr_cpu_ids == total_cpus and his patch wouldn't do anything anyway.

[    0.286838] max_cores: 15, cpu_ids: 60, num_siblings: 2, coreid_bits: 5
[    0.293463] smpboot: Max logical packages: 2
[    0.297733] smpboot: APIC(0) Converting physical 0 to logical package 0
[    0.304346] smpboot: APIC(20) Converting physical 1 to logical package 1
[    0.311047] smpboot: APIC(40) Package 2 exceeds logical package map
[    0.317309] smpboot: CPU 30 APICId 40 disabled
[    0.321757] smpboot: APIC(60) Package 3 exceeds logical package map
[    0.328022] smpboot: CPU 45 APICId 60 disabled

This machine does exactly what I suspected yours did.
