The commit title is a bit misleading - the inhibit reason is not removed,
but rather AVIC is not inhibited when x2avic is present.

BTW, now that I am thinking about it, it would be nice to be able to force
the AVIC_MODE_X1 even if x2avic is present, for debug purposes from a module
param. Just a suggestion.
