From: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

BIOS can set up x2apic_opt_out bit on some platforms. This is not a BIOS
problem. A user can either disable the x2apic_opt_out bit in BIOS or by kernel
parameter "no_x2apic_optout". Instead of printing a warning, we just print
information of x2apic opt out.
