Although there is no PIC in hw-reduced mode,
and even though "PCI Interrupt Link Devices" are typically
used to describe PIC interrupts in IOAPIC mode,
I think that Links may still be used in straight IOAPIC mode --
at least in theory.

So it isn't clear that we can categorically disable Link support
in HW-reduced mode.
