Now that there's Hyper-V IOMMU driver, Linux can switch to x2apic mode when supported by the vcpus. However, the apic access functions for Hyper-V enlightened apic assume xapic mode only. As a result, Linux fails to bring up secondary cpus when run as a guest in QEMU/KVM with both hv_apic and x2apic enabled. According to Michael Kelley, when in x2apic mode, the Hyper-V synthetic apic MSRs behave exactly the same as the corresponding architectural x2apic MSRs, so there's no need to override the apic accessors. The only exception is hv_apic_eoi_write, which benefits from lazy EOI when available; however, its implementation works for both xapic and x2apic modes. Fixes: |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
