| Subject: [PATCH] x86: warn on apic error
|
| There are certain APIC errors which are obviously programmer errors,
| e.g. writing to illegal APIC registers, or sending invalid interrupt
| vectors. Since the error interrupt happens spot on the erroneous code,
| we might as well make a bit of noise about it and display the stack-
| trace.

Hi Vegard, i think you better should use #APIC_ESR_... macroses
from apicdef.h instead of hardcoded bits.
