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!

Return 0 to denote that x2APIC has not been enabled when probing the
physical x2APIC driver.
