Right.  In xapic mode the ICR2 aka the high 4 bytes of ICR is programmed
with the destination id in the highest byte; in x2apic mode the whole
ICR2 is set to the 32bit destination id.

As I wrote in the commit log, I haven't tested it in the sense that I
ran a Linux guest in a Hyper-V VM exposing x2apic to the guest, because
I didn't manage to configure it to do so.  OTOH I did run a Windows
guest in QEMU/KVM with hv_apic and x2apic enabled and saw it write
destination ids unshifted to the ICR2 part of ICR, so I assume it's
correct.

Would be appreciated, indeed.

I guess so.  All apic choices are made early at __init, obviously before
the secondary CPUs are brought up, and aren't reconsidered afterwards.

x2apic_enabled() is too heavy for that: it reads MSR_IA32_APICBASE.  One
could probably use a read-mostly global variable instead but I'm not
sure it would make the code better.

Thanks,
