MPS 1.4 example code shows the following required delays during processor
on-lining:

INIT
 udelay(10,000)
SIPI
 udelay(200)
SIPI
 udelay(200) /* Linux actually implements this as udelay(300) */

Linux skips the udelay(10,000) on modern processors.
This patch removes the udelay(200) after each SIPI
on those same processors.

All three legacy delays can be restored by the cmdline
"cpu_init_udelay=10000".

As measured by analyze_suspend.py, this patch speeds
processor resume time on my desktop from 2.4ms to 1.8ms, per AP.
