| | hm, is there any non-integrated lapic that has more than 3 lvts? iirc
| | lvts were introduced with the integrated lapic.

|
| Yes Ingo, but don't forget the next line in former
|
| accept_status = (apic_read(APIC_ESR) & 0xEF);
|
| so we're protected in writting but _not_ in reading - which
| is buggy a bit :-)

Ingo - could you replace in this patch message and subject -
writting to reading - it will be more correct.
