Haven't yet dedicated any brain cells to the rest of the patch, but this can be
written as

	if (avic && avic_init_host_physical_apicid_mask())
		avic = false;

or

	avic = avic && !avic_init_host_physical_apicid_mask();

But looking at the context below, combining everything would be preferable.  I
would say split out the enable_apicv part to make it more obvious that enable_apicv
is merely a reflection of avic.

	avic = avic && npt_enabled && boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_AVIC) &&
	       !avic_init_host_physical_apicid_mask();
	enable_apicv = avic;


Yes, we can do that. I'll update the logic in V2.

Thanks,
Suravee
