Sure.

Boot(ing|ed) kinda wastes unnecessary space too, how about we go a step
further:

[ 0.074509] x86: Booting SMP configuration:
[ 0.644008] .... node #0, CPUs: #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7
[ 1.245006] .... node #1, CPUs: #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15
[ 1.864005] .... node #2, CPUs: #16 #17 #18 #19 #20 #21 #22 #23
[ 2.489005] .... node #3, CPUs: #24 #25 #26 #27 #28 #29 #30 #31
[ 3.093005] .... node #4, CPUs: #32 #33 #34 #35 #36 #37 #38 #39
[ 3.698005] .... node #5, CPUs: #40 #41 #42 #43 #44 #45 #46 #47
[ 4.304005] .... node #6, CPUs: #48 #49 #50 #51 #52 #53 #54 #55
[ 4.961413] .... node #7, CPUs: #56 #57 #58 #59 #60 #61 #62 #63
[ 5.245021] x86: Booted up 8 nodes, 64 CPUs

vs

[ 0.074509] x86: Booting SMP configuration:
[ 0.072367] .... node #0, CPUs: #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7
[ 0.686329] x86: Booted up 1 node, 8 CPUs

Btw, the "x86" prefix would mean we want to either change pr_fmt() of
arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c (which I rather not) or not use pr_info (which
I'd prefer).

Ok.

Yes.

Ok.

Haha, ok.

Ok.

Should be easy to do :)

So how about the even shorter mockup above?

Thanks.
