Having Xen call setup_IO_APIC() to initialize the irq domains then having to
add special cases to it is just wrong.

The bits of init deferred by mp_register_apic() are also deferred to
two different places which looks odd.

What about something like the following (untested) patch?

This would have to xen_pv_domain().
