If x2apic was enabled during boot with parallel startup

Store whether to enable into the smpboot_control global variable
and during startup re-enable it if necessary.

Yeah, so instead of adding further kludges to the 'parallel bringup is
possible' code path, which is arguably a functional feature that shouldn't
have hardware-management coupled to it, would it be possible to fix
parallel bringup to AMD-SEV systems, so that this code path isn't a
quirk-dependent "parallel boot" codepath, but simply the "x86 SMP boot
codepath", where all SMP x86 systems do a parallel bootup?

The original commit by Thomas says:

0c7ffa32dbd6 ("x86/smpboot/64: Implement arch_cpuhp_init_parallel_bringup() and enable it")

| Unfortunately there is no RDMSR GHCB protocol at the moment, so enabling
| AMD-SEV guests for parallel startup needs some more thought.

But that was half a year ago, isn't there RDMSR GHCB access code available now?

This code would all read a lot more natural if it was the regular x86 SMP
bootup path - which it is 'almost' today already, modulo quirk.

Obviously coupling functional features with hardware quirks is fragile, for
example your patch extending x86 SMP parallel bringup doesn't extend the
AMD-SEV case, which may or may not matter in practice.

So, if it's possible, it would be nice to fix AMD-SEV systems as well and
remove this artificial coupling.

It probably isn't clear since I didn't mention it in the commit message, but this is not a system that supports AMD-SEV. This is a workstation that supports x2apic. I'll clarify that for V2.

I've looped Tom in to comment whether it's possible to improve AMD-SEV as well.


Also, side note #1: curly braces should be balanced.

Sure, thanks for the feedback. I'll adjust the style for v2.
