Subject: x86/apic: Do not init irq remapping if ioapic is disabled

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@hotmail.com>

commit 2e63ad4bd5dd583871e6602f9d398b9322d358d9 upstream.

native_smp_prepare_cpus
  -> default_setup_apic_routing
    -> enable_IR_x2apic
      -> irq_remapping_prepare
        -> intel_prepare_irq_remapping
          -> intel_setup_irq_remapping

So IR table is setup even if "noapic" boot parameter is added. As a result we
crash later when the interrupt affinity is set due to a half initialized
remapping infrastructure.

Prevent remap initialization when IOAPIC is disabled.
