I've seen systems with discontiguous apic ids before.

It is obvious if you consider setups with node hotplug.

BTW reading this thread you don't seem interested in any code review feedback,
attacking everyone, not bothering to look up data sheets,
not understanding the hardware you're changing the driver for, etc.
Why do you even bother to post the patches?
