Subject: [RFC PATCH 08/13] KVM: SVM: Do not update logical APIC ID table when in x2APIC mode

In X2APIC mode the Logical Destination Register is read-only,
which provides a fixed mapping between the logical and physical
APIC IDs. Therefore, there is no Logical APIC ID table in X2AVIC
and the processor uses the X2APIC ID in the backing page to create
a vCPU’s logical ID.

Therefore, add logic to check x2APIC mode before updating logical
APIC ID table.
