This is an SN specific patch.

Architectually, cpu_init is always called twice on cpu 0
and thus resulted in two SN_SAL_SET_CPU_NUMBER calls.

This was harmless in production kernel; however, it can
cause problem on booting up a crashdump kernel at Altix.

Here is the patch that detects the second sn_cpu_init
call and skips the second call to SN_SAL_SET_CPU_NUMBER.
