Yes, that is correct.
It's my bad as I didn't realize that I introduced this bug while submitting this
patch.

I should have just moved it above test_ioapic_self_reconfigure().

I can divide it 2 parts:
1. support for logical destination mode.
2. support for physical destination mode. I can also fix  the above issue in
this patch itself.
Does that make sense?
