Vegard, could you test the patch?

If we have apic disabled we don't even switch to APIC mode and do not
calling for connect_bsp_APIC. Though on SMP compiled kernel the
native_machine_shutdown does try to write the apic register anyway.
Fix it with explicit check if we really should touch apic registers.
