Personally think we should just always compile up the APIC code if the
arch declares support and let the bootstrap code interrogate CPUID. Who
in 2015 is really running a system without an APIC/IO-APIC and
tip-of-tree Linux and does that one user care about adding 12k to her
kernel ? I suspect not and in any case can force the APIC off with a
command line argument
