The ACPI subsystem will register and initialize all IOAPICs when walking
ACPI MADT table during boot, before initializing PCI subsystem.
Later when binding ioapic PCI driver to IOAPIC PCI device, it will try
to register the IOAPIC device again.

After this patchset is applied, we could remove the !ioapic_initialized
check. We check acpi_ioapic_register() before calling
acpi_register_ioapic(). So the check becomes redundant.
Or we could remove the temporary code from this patch.

How about following comments?
/*
 * If mp_register_ioapic() is called during early boot stage when
 * walking ACPI/SFI/DT tables, it's too early to create irqdomain,
 * we are still using bootmem allocator. So delay it to setup_IO_APIC().
