[PATCH] arch/x86: Don't try to poke disabled/non-existent APIC

Apparently trying to poke a disabled or non-existent APIC
leads to a box that doesn't even boot. Let's not do that.

No real clue if this is the right fix, but at least my
P3 machine boots again.

It looks okay to gate on X86_FEATURE_APIC, but not sure if it should be

cpu_has(&cpu_data(0), X86_FEATURE_APIC)

since smp_store_boot_cpu_info() was already called.

tglx?
