x86: x2apic, IR: remove reinit_intr_remapped_IO_APIC()
When interrupt-remapping is enabled, we are relying on setup_IO_APIC_irqs() to configure remapped entries in the IO-APIC, which comes little bit later after enabling interrupt-remapping. Meanwhile, restoration of old io-apic entries after enabling interrupt-remapping will not make the interrupts through io-apic functional anyway. So remove the unnecessary reinit_intr_remapped_IO_APIC() step. The longer story: When interrupt-remapping is enabled, IO-APIC entries need to be setup in the re-mappable format (pointing to interrupt-remapping table entries setup by the OS). This remapping configuration is happening in the same place where we traditionally configure IO-APIC (i.e., in setup_IO_APIC_irqs()). So when we enable interrupt-remapping successfully, there is no need to restore old io-apic RTE entries before we actually do a complete configuration shortly in setup_IO_APIC_irqs(). Old IO-APIC RTE's may be in traditional format (non re-mappable) or in re-mappable format pointing to interrupt-remapping table entries setup by BIOS. Restoring both of these will not make IO-APIC functional. We have to rely on setup_IO_APIC_irqs() for proper configuration by OS. So I am removing this unnecessary and broken step.
