There were three calls sites:
- recalculate_apic_map and kvm_apic_match_physical_addr, where it would
only complicate implementation of x2APIC hotplug;
- in apic_debug, where it was still somewhat preserved, but keeping the
old function just for apic_debug was not worth it

Why exactly do we have to increase this?

I thought the maximum xapic id is 255, and we correctly allocate
255+1 slots.

Now, we would allocate 257 slots and set max_apic_id to 256.

Can you elaborate?
