Thanks, this series is exactly what the doctor ordered: it fixes 
real problems and still manages to shrink the code!

I've made a few smaller observations to specific patches but none 
seemed like a real showstopper to me so i've applied your series to 
tip:x86/apic (with minor edits to the changelogs) to get this tested 
some more - pending Ack/Nak from David and Jesse for the IOMMU and 
PCI interactions.

Please do the fixlets/cleanups as delta patches against 
tip:x86/apic:

Thanks,
