    Ralf Hildebrandt reported this boot warning:
    
    | Running a vanilla 2.6.32 as Xen DomU, I'm getting:
    |
    | [    0.000999] CPU: Physical Processor ID: 0
    | [    0.000999] CPU: Processor Core ID: 1
    | [    0.000999] Performance Events: AMD PMU driver.
    | [    0.000999] ------------[ cut here ]------------
    | [    0.000999] WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c:249 native_apic_write_dummy
    
    So we need to check if APIC functionality is available, and
    not just in the P6 driver but elsewhere as well.
