Intel SDM says, that at most one LAPIC should be configured with ExtINT delivery. KVM configures all LAPICs this way. This causes pic_unlock() to kick the first available vCPU from the internal KVM data structures. If this vCPU is not the BSP, but some not-yet-booted AP, the BSP may never realize that there is an interrupt. Fix that by enabling ExtINT delivery only for the BSP. This allows booting a Linux guest without a TSC in the above situation. Otherwise the BSP gets stuck in calibrate_delay_converge(). Signed-off-by: Jan H.
