AFAIU you're trying to mirror native_x2apic_icr_write() here but this is
different from what hv_apic_icr_write() does
(SET_APIC_DEST_FIELD(id)). Is it actually correct? (I think you've
tested this and it is but) Michael, could you please shed some light
here?

(just wondering): Is it always safe to assume that we cannot switch
between apic_flat/x2apic in runtime? Moreover, the only difference
between hv_apic_read/hv_apic_write and hv_x2apic_read/hv_x2apic_write is
native_apic_mem_{read,write} -> native_apic_msr_{read,write}. Would it
make sense to move if (x2apic_enabled()) and merge these functions?
