Subject: [PATCH 3.17 10/25] x86: Tell irq work about self IPI support

3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@...il.com>

commit 3010279f0fc36f0388872203e63ca49912f648fd upstream.

x86 supports irq work self-IPIs when local apic is available. This is
partly known on runtime so lets implement arch_irq_work_has_interrupt()
accordingly.

This should be safely called after setup_arch().
