[PATCH for review] [52/145] x86_64: Remove pirq overwrite support

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Thu Aug 10 2006 - 16:25:18 EST


r

This was an old workaround for broken MP-BIOS. The user could
specify overwrites on the command line.

I've never seen it being used for anything on 64bit. So get
rid of it for now.
