[RFC v1 0/2] x86: kconfig: simplify APIC entries

[Luis R. Rodriguez]

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx>

There's quite a bit of Kconfig entries related to X86_LOCAL_APIC
and X86_IO_APIC, and all for 32-bit purposes. Since 32-bit isn't in
a magical state of flux we now *should* know when to enable or disable
APIC stuff for these systems. Through history we've observed for
instance PCI_MSI requires these under specific scenarios, just enable
it for those learned scenarios and expect future requirements to also
be explicit about the requirements on 32-bit. This lets us remove
clutter (3 Kconfig entries) from x86 Kconfig simply for 32-bit build
purposes.
