There is only one really enigmatic issue, it was reported that sandy bridge laptop being unable to start APs. Koop stopped responding, so the issue is not progresed. My current idea is that a cause might be reduced intervals between init/startup ipis due to x2apic not requiring wait for icr idle. Anyway, I do not see it worth even discussing the revert or default' frobbing for now. The commit went mostly event-less for such kind of change.
