Do not assume that the local APIC is in a xAPIC mode after reset.
Instead reset it first, since it might be in x2APIC mode, from which a
transition in xAPIC is invalid.

Note that we do not use the existing disable_apic() for the matter,
since it also re-initializes apic_ops.


Is there any issue if apic_ops is reset ?

Why not use MSR_IA32_APICBASE instead of 0x1b ?
