Right, SMP does not depend on X86_LOCAL_APIC. Otherwise, there would be
a circular dependency here.

X86_LOCAL_APIC depends on the logical OR of a bunch of options. So it
depends on "any one" of the options to be enabled. But it doesn't need
all of them.

config UP_LATE_INIT
        def_bool y
        depends on !SMP && X86_LOCAL_APIC
	           ^^^^^^^^^^^^

This shows that X86_LOCAL_APIC doesn't have a hard dependency on SMP.
Otherwise, this option would never work.

Thanks,
Yazen
