Originally, AMD SVM AVIC supports 8-bit host physical APIC ID. However, newer AMD systems can have physical APIC ID larger than 255, and AVIC hardware has been extended to support upto the maximum physical APIC ID available in the system. This series introduces a helper function in the APIC subsystem to get the maximum physical APIC ID allowing the SVM AVIC driver to calculate the number of bits to program the host physical APIC ID in the AVIC physical APIC ID table entry.
