[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.
