Subject[RFC PATCH v2 04/12] x86/time: Initialize interrupt mode behind timer init
Date
In start_kernel(), firstly, it works on the default interrupy mode, then
switch to the final mode. default mode may not be compatible with the
actual hardware, which cause the delivery interrupt to fail.

Try to set up the final mode as soon as possible. according to the parts
which split from that initialization:

1) Set up the APIC/IOAPIC (including testing whether the timer
interrupt works)

2) Calibrate TSC

3) Set up the local APIC timer

-- From Thomas Gleixner

Initializing the mode should be earlier than calibrating TSC and needs
testing whether the timer interrupt works at the same time.

Add init_interrupt_mode() to the right location in x86_late_time_init().
