for physical flat mode

apic->cpu_mask_to_apicid() is

static unsigned int physflat_cpu_mask_to_apicid(const struct cpumask *cpumask)
{
        int cpu;

        /*
         * We're using fixed IRQ delivery, can only return one phys APIC ID.
         * May as well be the first.
         */
        cpu = cpumask_first(cpumask);
        if ((unsigned)cpu < nr_cpu_ids)
                return per_cpu(x86_cpu_to_apicid, cpu);
        else
                return BAD_APICID;
}


so this patch will put all ioapic routing to boot_cpu_id what is that?
how can you assume that is is apic id.?
that is NOT apic id.

the patch is totally wrong.
