Is Linus current head 4.15-rc4 bad as well?

Thanks for doing that bisect, but unfortunately this commit cannot be the
problematic one, It merily adds a config symbol, but it does not change any
code at all. It has no effect whatsoever. So something might have gone
wrong in your bisecting.

I CC'ed Dou Liyang. He has changed the early APIC setup code and there has
been an issue reported already. Though I lost track of that. Dou, any
pointers?

Thanks,
