Please consider this patch to allow x2apic without IR support when running on VMware platform. Tested on top of 3.8-rc3. Thanks, Alok -- Allow x2apic without IR on VMware platform. From: Alok N Kataria <akataria at vmware.com> This patch updates x2apic initializaition code to allow x2apic on VMware platform even without interrupt remapping support. The hypervisor_x2apic_available hook was added in x2apic initialization code and used by KVM and XEN, before this. I have also cleaned up that code to expor...
