Subject: [PATCH] x86/xen: call xen_set_upcall_vector() only after local apic setup

Calling xen_set_upcall_vector() before the local APIC has been
initialized results in warnings when setting up the local APIC:

[ 0.037322] APIC: Stale IRR: 00080000, ...

Avoid this problem by moving the call of xen_set_upcall_vector() for
APs from xen_cpu_up_prepare_hvm() to a new hotplug callback called on
the AP before interrupts are enabled and after the local APIC has been
initialized. There is already a Xen specific hotplug state defined at
a matching position, but right now it is specific to Arm. So rename
the CPUHP_AP_ARM_XEN_STARTING to CPUHP_AP_XEN_STARTING and use it for
x86, too.

On the boot processor use the x86_init.irqs.intr_mode_init hook to
call xen_set_upcall_vector() only after the local APIC initialization.
As interrupts are on already at the time when the hook is being used,
modify xen_init_setup_upcall_vector() to disable interrupts. This is
needed as the xen_percpu_upcall flag is set only after the callback
has been registered, and the flag is needed for correctly acknowledging
an interrupt.

Just to mention it here - as per [1] the issue may instead result from
hypervisor misbehavior, so I guess we want to investigate that route
first.
