Subject: [PATCH] x86/acpi: Do strict X2APIC ID check only when LAPIC contains enabled CPUs

Commit 8e9c42d776d6 ("x86/acpi: Ignore invalid x2APIC entries") does
strict X2APIC ID check when LAPIC contains valid CPUs. The code assumes
LAPIC contains valid CPUs when acpi_table_parse_madt(LAPIC) returns a
postive value.

This is wrong because acpi_table_parse_madt() return value only
represents the number of legal entries parsed. For example, LAPIC entry
with LAPIC ID 0xff is counted as a legal entry, but it doesn't describe
a valid CPU. And when all LAPIC entries have LAPIC ID 0xff, the return
value is positive but LAPIC does not contain any valid CPU. In this
case, kernel erroneously does strict X2APIC ID check and loses the CPUs
described in X2APIC entries.

Fix the problem by doing strict X2APIC ID check less aggressively, say
only when LAPIC contains enabled CPUs.
