Of course Tim will need to review this himself, but a mdelay() right here,
only on the x2apic path just looks bizarre and fragile.

Could we make the !x2apic_enabled conditionals that Tim added be
!(x2apic_enabled || tboot_in_measured_env()) instead? At least that is
somewhat self-documenting and clearly only affects tboot!
