[Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86: propagate disabled APIC state to Dom0
This in particular eliminates the need to specify "noapic" to Dom0
when
"noapic" is passed to Xen, provided the kernel side gets slightly
modified to make use of this information (Linux side patch cannot
easily be provided for the 2.6.18 tree, but this is being used by our
2.6.27-based one).
