Subject: kernel BUG at arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c with Dell server with
 x2APIC enabled and unset X2APIC

Dear Linux folks,


On the Dell PowerEdge T640/04WYPY, BIOS 2.4.8 11/27/2019, Linux 5.4.14 (and 4.19.57) with
unset `IRQ_REMAP` and `X86_X2APIC` crashes on start-up, when x2APIC is enabled in the
firmware.

    [    4.155968] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task! ]---

This is the code below.

        /*
         * Double-check whether this APIC is really registered.
         * This is meaningless in clustered apic mode, so we skip it.
         */
        BUG_ON(!apic->apic_id_registered());

Should this be made a similar error as in `validate_x2apic`?

	panic("BIOS has enabled x2apic but kernel doesn't support x2apic, please disable x2apic in BIOS.\n");

`noapic` and `acpi=off` separately did not work, but `noapic acpi=off` hit the other
panic.


Kind regards,

Paul
