Subject: [patch 3/4] x86/topology: Handle the !APIC case gracefully

If there is no local APIC enumerated and registered then the topology
bitmaps are empty. Therefore topology_init_possible_cpus() will die with a
division by zero exception.

Prevent this by registering a fake APIC id to populate the topology
bitmap. This also allows to use all topology query interfaces
unconditionally. It does not affect the actual APIC code because either the
local APIC address was not registered or no local APIC could be detected.

x86/topology: Handle the !APIC case gracefully

If there is no local APIC enumerated and registered then the topology
bitmaps are empty. Therefore, topology_init_possible_cpus() will die with
a division by zero exception.

Prevent this by registering a fake APIC id to populate the topology
bitmap. This also allows to use all topology query interfaces
unconditionally. It does not affect the actual APIC code because either
the local APIC address was not registered or no local APIC could be
detected.
