Just cpu_to_apic_id[] please.   The distinction between x or x2 isn't
interesting here.

HVM_MAX_VCPUS is a constant that should never have existed in the first
place, *and* its the limit we're looking to finally break when this
series is accepted.

This array needs to be hvm_info->nr_vcpus entries long, and will want to
be more than 128 entries very soon.  Just scratch_alloc() the array. 
Then you can avoid the include.

This is just going to break when we hit 256 vCPUs in a VM.

What do real systems do?

They'll either wrap around 255 like the CPUID xAPIC_ID does, or they'll
not write out MP tables at all.

Technically all arrays are a lookup table, but I'm not sure LUT is a
common enough term to be used unqualified like this.

Just say "... signalled by writing its APIC_ID out."  The where is very
apparent by the code.

You need to check max_leaf >= 0xb too.  Remember Xen might not give you
leave 0xb yet, and then you'll hit the assert for finding 0.

And has_x2apic wants to be a simple boolean.  Nothing good can come from
confusing -1 with "x2apic available".


I recommend splitting this patch into three.  Several aspects are quite
subtle.

1) Collect the APIC_IDs on APs
2) Change how callin is signalled.
3) Replace LAPIC_ID() with the collected apic_id.

but AFAICT, it can be done as a standalone series, independently of the
other Xen/toolstack work.
