apic_noop is used to provide dummy apic functions. It's installed
when the CPU has no APIC or when the APIC is disabled on the kernel
command line.
The apic_noop implementation of apic_write() warns when the CPU has
an APIC or when the APIC is not disabled.
That's bogus. The warning should only happen when the CPU has an
APIC _AND_ the APIC is not disabled. apic_noop.apic_read() has the
correct check.

We should not use physid_mask_t as a stack based
variable in apic code. This type depends on MAX_APICS
parameter which may be huge enough.
Especially it became a problem with apic NOOP driver which
is portable between 32 bit and 64 bit environment
(where we have really huge MAX_APICS).
So apic driver should operate with pointers and a caller
in turn should aware of allocation physid_mask_t variable.
As a side (but positive) effect -- we may use already
implemented physid_set_mask_of_physid function eliminating
default_apicid_to_cpu_present completely.
Note that physids_coerce and physids_promote turned into static
inline from macro (since macro hides the fact that parameter is
being interpreted as unsigned long, make it explicit).

In fact it's never get used on x86-64 (for 64 bit platform
we use differ technique to enumerate io-units).

As only apic noop is used we allow to use almost any operation
caller wants (and which of them noop driver supports of
course).
Initially it was reported by Ingo Molnar that apic noop
issue a warning for pkg id (which is actually false positive
and should be eliminated).
So we save checking (and warning issue) for read/write
operations while allow any other ops to be freely used.
Also:
- fix noop_cpu_to_logical_apicid, it should be 0.
- rename noop_default_phys_pkg_id to noop_phys_pkg_id
(we use default_ prefix for more general routines
in apic subsystem).

Introduce NOOP APIC driver. We should use it in case if apic was
disabled due to hardware of software/firmware problems (including
user requested to disable it case).
The driver is attempting to catch any inappropriate apic operation
call with warning issue.
Also it is possible to use some apic operation like IPI calls,
read/write without checking for apic presence which should make
callers code easier.
