[PATCH 1/3] x86/apic/kexec: Enable legacy irq mode before jump to kexec/kdump kernel

It's reported that if kernel parameter "notsc" is specified kdump kernel
always hang after printing boot log as below:
---
tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT
tsc: Detected 2099.947 MHz processor
Calibrating delay loop...
---
The reason is no timer interrupt during kdump kernel initialization.
With "notsc" specified the function tsc_init() will return early and won't
assign already calibrated value to lpj_fine, we have to rely on timer
interrupt to get cpu loops between jiffies. Then system hangs to wait for
the never coming timer interrupt.
This is caused by buggy 'commit 522e66464467 ("x86/apic: Disable I/O APIC
before shutdown of the local APIC")'. In normal kernel it defaults to be
PIC mode or Virtual Wire mode during system initialization before APIC
mode is enabled and this is done by BIOS initialization. With this timer
interrupt can be handled in legacy irq way. But kexec/kdump kernel won't
go through BIOS, so we have to set system as PIC or Virtual Wire mode
before jump to kdump kernel code directly. This is done in disable_IO_APIC
which includes two parts, firstly it calls clear_IO_APIC() to disable
IO-APIC, then it sets LAPIC and IO-APIC to make system be PIC or Virtual
Wire mode. In commit 522e66464 it put disable_IO_APIC earlier so that
local apic is completely disabled.
So in this patch take clear_IO_APIC out from disable_IO_APIC and rename
disable_IO_APIC as switch_to_legacy_irq_mode. Then only call clear_IO_APIC
when IO-APIC need be disabled. And call switch_to_legacy_irq_mode before
kexec/kdump jumping.
