[PATCH 3.11 018/208] x86/apic: Disable I/O APIC before shutdown of the local APIC

[Luis Henriques]

3.11.10.3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 522e66464467543c0d88d023336eec4df03ad40b upstream.

In reboot and crash path, when we shut down the local APIC, the I/O APIC is
still active. This may cause issues because external interrupts
can still come in and disturb the local APIC during shutdown process.

To quiet external interrupts, disable I/O APIC before shutdown local APIC.

[ I suppose the 'issue' is a hang during shutdown. It's a fine change nevertheless. ]
