Yinghai, Can you please try the appended patch to see if it fixes your problem?

I guess you need to try the tip/x86/x2apic tree now please :(

BTW, I don't know why we even do verify_local_APIC() in 64bit. Especially
when we don't care for the return value, it should be a no-op.

genapic's read_apic_id() returns the actual apic id extracted from
the APIC_ID register. And in some cases like UV, read_apic_id()
returns completely different values from APIC ID register.

Use the native apic register read, rather than genapic read_apic_id()
in verify_local_APIC()

And also, lapic_suspend() should also use native apic register read.
