Here actually the good apic_x2apic_mode was used.
However, shouldn't we inject #GP in avic_ldr_write to make this read realy read-only?
It might be too late to do so here, since most AVIC writes are trap like.
Thus we need to make the msr that corresponds to LDR to be write protected in the msr bitmap,
and inject #GP when write it attempted.
Then we can add WARN_ON in this function for this case instead.
