Subject: [PATCH] Qemu/KVM: Remove x2apic feature from CPU model when
 kernel_irqchip=off

x2apic feature is in the kvm_default_props and automatically added to all
CPU models when KVM is enabled regardless of kernel_irqchip=off. This will
trigger "warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:
ECX.x2apic [bit 21]" when kernel_irqchip=off. This patch is to remove x2apic
feature when kernel_irqchip=off.
