Yes this seems to be the case, although I didn't realise it until now!
I sort of assumed since x2apic has been around so long, all the intel VMs
just had it enabled...

I've tested this patch on these Azure SKUs:
- Standard_D2S_v2 (intel xapic)
- Standard_D4ds_v4 (intel xapic)
- Standard_D4ds_v5 (intel x2apic)
- Standard_D4ads_v5 (amd xapic)

I've tested with linux Dom0 (nested hyperv root partition) and as a
regular L1 guest.
