Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/apic: Fix modify_irte NULL pointer

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@...mail.com>

native_smp_prepare_cpus
  -> default_setup_apic_routing
    -> enable_IR_x2apic
      -> irq_remapping_prepare
        -> intel_prepare_irq_remapping
          -> intel_setup_irq_remapping		  

IR table is setup even if "noapic" boot parameter is added.

As a result:

    BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)

This patch fix it by disabling IOAPIC support if "noapic" is on the kernel 
command line.
