This patch changes the public API. There's no need to change
struct mcinfo_extended. The marshalling technique allows to use
this structure as often as needed. Please undo this change.

struct mcinfo_global is also changed. Why can't mc_coreid not be
filled with the apicid ? Adding the apicid field breaks the alignment
causing troubles on 32bit-guest-on-64bit-hypervisor.
