Impact: simplification
In the current code, for level triggered migration, we need to modify the
io-apic RTE with the update vector information, along with modifying interrupt
remapping table entry(IRTE) with vector and destination. This is to ensure that
remote IRR bit inthe IOAPIC RTE gets cleared when the cpu does EOI.
With this patch, for level triggered, we eliminate the io-apic RTE modification
(with the updated vector information), by using a virtual vector (io-apic pin
number). Real vector that is used for interrupting cpu will be coming from
the interrupt-remapping table entry. Trigger mode in the IRTE will always be
edge, and the actual level or edge trigger will be setup in the IO-APIC RTE.
So a level triggered interrupt will appear as an edge to the local apic
cpu but still as level to the IO-APIC.
With this change, level irq migration can be done by simply modifying
the interrupt-remapping table entry with out changing the io-apic RTE.
And as the interrupt appears as edge at the cpu, in addition to do the
local apic EOI, we need to do IO-APIC directed EOI to clear the remote
IRR bit in the IO-APIC RTE.
This simplies the irq migration in the presence of interrupt-remapping.

Impact: make kexec work with x2apic
disable_IO_APIC() gets called during crashdump aswell, which configures the
IO-APIC/LAPIC so that legacy interrupts can be delivered for the kexec'd kernel.
In the presence of interrupt-remapping, we need to change the
interrupt-remapping configuration aswell as modifying IO-APIC for virtual wire
B mode.
To keep things simple during the crash, use virtual wire A mode
(for which we don't need to touch io-apic and interrupt-remapping tables).

Impact: interface augmentation (not yet used)
Enable fault handling flow for intr-remapping aswell. Fault handling
code now shared by both dma-remapping and intr-remapping.

arch/x86/kernel/ is getting a bit crowded, and the APIC
drivers are scattered into various different files.
Move them to arch/x86/kernel/apic/*, and also remove
the 'gen' prefix from those which had it.
Also move APIC related functionality: the IO-APIC driver,
the NMI and the IPI code.
