[PATCH] i386: Consolidate modern APIC handling
AMD systems have a modern APIC that supports 8 bit IDs, but don't have a XAPIC version number. Add a new "modern_apic" subfunction that handles this correctly and use it (nearly) everywhere where XAPIC is tested for. I removed one wart: the code specified that external APICs would use an 8bit APIC ID. But I checked a real 82093 data sheet and it says clearly that they only use 4bit. So I removed this special case since it would a bit awkward to implement now. I removed the valid APIC tests in mptable parsing completely. On any modern system they only check against the full field width (8bit) anyways and are no-ops. This also fixes them doing the wrong thing on >8 core Opterons. This makes i386 boot again on 16 core Opterons. Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
