Subject: 2.6.37 says WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c:1287 setup_local_APIC+0x18f/0x263()

Booting an x86-64 2.6.37 kernel under QEMU with the attached .config and
this  qemu command line:

  qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -no-reboot -kernel "zImage-x86_64" \
    -hda "image-x86_64.sqf" -append \
    "root=/dev/hda rw init=/sbin/init.sh panic=1 PATH=/bin:/sbin console=ttyS0 HOST=x86_64"

It said this during boot:

CPU: AMD QEMU Virtual CPU version 0.13.50 stepping 03
Setting APIC routing to flat

And so on.  Seems to have booted fine, but I thought you'd like to know
and I couldn't find a mention of this in the January lkml archive...
