Here you said several times you are checking if APIC is integrated, but
you always check boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_APIC), and you also check
smp_found_config in above case. Can you make the comment match the code?

E.g if (!boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_APIC)), cpu doesn't support lapic,
just return, you can remove the CONFIG_X86_64 check to make it a common
check. And we have lapic_is_integrated() to check if lapic is integrated.

Besides, we are saying lapic is integrated with ioapic in a single chip,
right? I found MP-Spec mention it. If yes, could you add more words to
make it more specific and precise? Then people can get the exact
information from the comment and code.

Thanks
