Subject: x86: select x2apic ops in early apic probe only if x2apic mode is enabled

If BIOS hands over the control to OS in legacy xapic mode, select legacy xapic
related ops in the early apic probe and shift to x2apic ops later in the boot
sequence, only after enabling x2apic mode.

If BIOS hands over the control in x2apic mode, select x2apic related ops
in the early apic probe.

This fixes the early boot panic, where we were selecting x2apic ops,
while the cpu is still in legacy xapic mode.
