[PATCH] kexec: x86 shutdown APICs during crash_shutdown
In the case of a crash/panic an architecture specific function machine_crash_shutdown is called. This patch adds to the x86 machine_crash function the standard kernel code for shutting down apics. Every line of code added to that function increases the risk that we will call code after a kernel panic that is not safe. This patch should not make it to the stable kernel without a being reviewed a lot more. It is unclear how much a hardned kernel can take when it comes to misconfigured apics. So since a normal kernel has problems this patch does a clean shutdown. It is my expectation this patch will be dropped from future generations of the kexec work. But for the moment it is a crutch to keep from breaking everything.
