[RFC PATCH 06/23] x86/ioapic: Add support for IRQCHIP_CAN_DELIVER_AS_NMI with interrupt remapping

[Ricardo Neri <ricardo.neri-calderon@linux.intel.com>]

Even though there is a delivery mode field at the entries of an IO APIC's
redirection table, the documentation of the majority of the IO APICs
explicitly states that interrupt delivery as non-maskable is not supported.
Thus,

However, when using an IO APIC in combination with the Intel VT-d interrupt
remapping functionality, the delivery of the interrupt to the CPU is
handled by the remapping hardware. In such a case, the interrupt can be
delivered as non maskable.

Thus, add the IRQCHIP_CAN_DELIVER_AS_NMI flag only when used in combination
with interrupt remapping.
