We know both register and value for eoi beforehand,
so there's no need to check it and no need to do math
to calculate the msr. Saves instructions/branches
on each EOI when using x2apic.
I checked the generated code to verify that it
actually is shorter, but haven't done any
performance testing. What's appropriate here
and what kind of test makes the most sense?
