The only place where its use is relevent in the code is in disable_local_APIC

protection fault (which leads to a general protection fault).
So if you don't have x2apic, then it is wrong to disable the LAPIC mode?
What about older hardware?
I guess I wasn't very clear in my description. In older hardware
without x2apic, it is correct to simply twiddle the ENABLE bit in the
APICBASE MSR. However, with x2apic mode enabled, setting the ENABLE bit
from 1 to 0 while leaving the EXTD bit set will result in a protection
fault which will propagate to a general protection fault the same
codepath will be called in the fault handler. As a result, the current
code in disable_local_APIC will result in a GPF if the BIOS boots with
LAPICs disabled (fine as per the spec for compatibility) and xen decided
to take advantage of x2apic mode.
