    x86/apic: Fix kernel panic when booting with intremap=off and x2apic_phys
    
    [ Upstream commit 85d38d5810e285d5aec7fb5283107d1da70c12a9 ]
    
    When booting with "intremap=off" and "x2apic_phys" on the kernel command
    line, the physical x2APIC driver ends up being used even when x2APIC
    mode is disabled ("intremap=off" disables x2APIC mode). This happens
    because the first compound condition check in x2apic_phys_probe() is
    false due to x2apic_mode == 0 and so the following one returns true
    after default_acpi_madt_oem_check() having already selected the physical
    x2APIC driver.
    
    This results in the following panic:
    
       kernel BUG at arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c:2409!
       invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI
