Use IPI for blacklisted CPUs, add parameter IPI vs LAPIC
Currently, Linux disables lapic timer for all machines with C2 and higher
C-state support.
According to Intel only specific Intel models (Banias/Dothan) are broken
in respect of not waking up from C2 with lapic.
However, I am not sure about the naming of the parameter and how it
could/should get integrated into the dyntick part
(CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS). There, a more fine grained check (TSC
still running?, ..) is needed? Does this make sense (always use
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ON, but use OFF if forced by use_ipi=0:
clockevents_notify(use_ipi ? CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ON :
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_OFF, &pr->id);

This patch allows for ibm-acpi to coexist (with diminished functionality) with
other drivers like ACPI_BAY. ibm-acpi will simply disable the functions it is
not able to register ACPI notifiers for.

Moving disable GPEs from enter_sleep up into sleep_prepare fixed
the disabled SCI on S4 on Acer laptops.
However, it caused an immediate S3 resume on the HP nx6125.
Apparently, on the HP, a GPE was getting re-enabled after
the prepare, but before the enter.
Close that window by restoring the GPE disable on enter.
This is redundant in most cases, but closes this window,
where S3 and S4 paths differ.

When a BIOS bug presents multiple APIC/MADTs,
Linux currently uses the 1st and ignores the 2nd.
But some machines work better if we use the 2nd.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7465
Add a warning and boot parameter "acpi_apic_instance=2"
to allow parsing the 2nd.
No change to default behaviour in this patch.
