From: Roman Kagan rkagan@virtuozzo.com
commit e211288b72f15259da86eed6eca680758dbe9e74 upstream.
Now that there's Hyper-V IOMMU driver, Linux can switch to x2apic mode when supported by the vcpus.
This patch should not go back to the 4.19 stable tree. I don't think it will break anything, but there's no Hyper-V vIOMMU driver in 4.19 so x2apic_enabled() is never true.
