Subject[patch 23/50] x86: dont read maxlvt before checking if APIC is mapped
-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
---------------------

From: Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@redhat.com>

upstream commit: 2584a82deed7196f48066f1b1a7fad4ec5bea961

A check for unmapped apic was added before reading maxlvt but the early
read of maxlvt wasn't removed.
