    x86, apic: Introduce the NOOP apic driver · 9844ab11
    Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于
    Introduce NOOP APIC driver. We should use it in case if apic was
    disabled due to hardware of software/firmware problems (including
    user requested to disable it case).
    
    The driver is attempting to catch any inappropriate apic operation
    call with warning issue.
    
    Also it is possible to use some apic operation like IPI calls,
    read/write without checking for apic presence which should make
    callers code easier.
