x86/smpboot: Init apic mapping before usage
The recent changes, which forced the registration of the boot cpu on UP systems, which do not have ACPI tables, have been fixed for systems w/o local APIC, but left a wreckage for systems which have neither ACPI nor mptables, but the CPU has an APIC, e.g. virtualbox. The boot process crashes in prefill_possible_map() as it wants to register the boot cpu, which needs to access the local apic, but the local APIC is not yet mapped. There is no reason why init_apic_mapping() can't be invoked before prefill_possible_map(). So instead of playing another silly early mapping game, as the ACPI/mptables code does, we just move init_apic_mapping() before the call to prefill_possible_map(). In hindsight, I should have noticed that combination earlier. Sorry for the churn (also in stable)!
