alloc_bootmem do panic on allication failure. There is no need to check the result. Also there is a way to unbind global variable from its body and use it as a parameter which allow us to simplify ioapic_init_mappings as well -- "for" cycle already uses nr_ioapics as a conditional variable and there is no need to check if ioapic_setup_resources was returning NULL again.
