The x2APIC architecture provides a new x2apic mode, which allows for the
increased range of processor addressability ( > 8 bit apic ID support),
MSR access to APIC registers, etc. The x2apic specification can be found
at:

http://download.intel.com/design/processor/specupdt/318148.pdf

It's been requested (I've CC'd Yinying) that we enable the
CONFIG_X86_X2APIC option in Maverick:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/597091

config X86_X2APIC
        bool "Support x2apic"
        depends on X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_64 && INTR_REMAP
        ---help---
          This enables x2apic support on CPUs that have this feature.

          This allows 32-bit apic IDs (so it can support very large systems),
          and accesses the local apic via MSRs not via mmio.

          If you don't know what to do here, say N.

Obviously the follow up and user of INTR_REMAP.

Hrm, try the following instead:

Applied to Maverick linux master.

Thanks,
