Subject[PATCH] x86: Re-enable IO-APIC for non-SMP X86_32
Date
Commit 0dbc6078c06bc0 ('x86, build, pci: Fix PCI_MSI build on !SMP')
introduced the dependency that X86_UP_APIC should only be visible only when
PCI_MSI is false.

Conceptually this is invalid since any x86 system that supports MSIs must
have an LAPIC to receive those messages. An MSI is written directly to the
LAPIC of the CPU servicing the interrupt.

Making X86_UP_APIC depend on !PCI_MSI means that X86_UP_IOAPIC will be false
since X86_UP_IOAPIC depends on X86_UP_APIC. It also means that X86_IO_APIC
cannot be true.

In other words no 32 bit uniprocessor system that supports MSIs can have an
IO-APIC, which is an architectually invalid statement.

This patch removes the dependency on !PCI_MSI for X86_UP_APIC and as a
consequence re-enables support for IO-APIC on 32 bit uniprocessor X86
systems.

Since Intel CE, Intel MID and Intel Quark are all 32-bit uniprocessor
systems with an IO-APIC re-enabling IO-APIC for 32-bit x86 is required.
