Subject: [PATCH 4/8] x86_64: Parsing for ACPI "SAPIC" table


Add kernel support for new ACPI "sapic" tables that contain 16-bit APICIDs.
This patch simply adds parsing of an optional SAPIC table if present.
Otherwise, the traditional local APIC table is used.

Note: the SAPIC table is not a new ACPI table - it exists on other architectures
but is not currently recognized by x86_64.

Based on:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-x86.git
