Hi Ingo, here is an updated series of two patches for
x2apic cluster mode ipi optimization. Please take a
look.

The only concern which was unresolved is a messy bit
in default_setup_apic_routing(), so we've added a FIXME
there and clean it up as only time permits. Actually I
have a plan to merge probe_32/64.c into single file (and
even started working on this task) but not yes succeed.

Anyway I think patches should be in a good shape now and
probably we could merge them to not lose?

Comments are welcome.

Very nice! This will also significantly speed up kvm guests using x2apic.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
