Linus,

Please git pull the following tag:

xen: fixes for 4.15-rc4

It contains two minor fixes for running as Xen dom0:
- when built as 32 bit kernel on large machines the Xen LAPIC emulation
  should report a rather modern LAPIC in order to support enough APIC-Ids
- The Xen LAPIC emulation is needed for dom0 only, so build it only for
  kernels supporting to run as Xen dom0

Thanks.

Juergen
