x86: Skip cpus with apic-ids >= 255 in !x2apic_mode
If the x2apic mode is disabled for reasons like interrupt-remapping not available etc, then we need to skip the logical cpu bringup of apic-id's >= 255. Otherwise as the platform is in xapic mode, init/startup IPI's will consider only the low 8-bits and there is a possibility of re-sending init/startup IPI's to the logical cpu that is already online. This will avoid potential reboots/unpredictable behavior etc. Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20111222014632.702932458@sbsiddha-desk.sc.intel.com Signed-off-by: H.
