Correct IRQ routing in case a vSMP Foundation box is detected but the 
Interrupt Routing Comply (IRC) is set to "comply".

Before the patch:
When a vSMP Foundation box was detected and IRC was set to "comply", users (and
kernel) couldn't effectively set the destination of the IRQs. This is because
the hook inside vsmp_64.c always setup all CPUs as the IRQ destination using
cpumask_setall() as the return value for IRQ allocation mask. Later, this
"overrided" mask caused the kernel to set the IRQ destination to the lowest
online CPU in the mask (CPU0 usually).

After the patch:
When the IRC is set to "comply", Users (and kernel) can control the destination
of the IRQs as we will not be changing the default
"apic->vector_allocation_domain".
