From 60d79fd99ff3b9c692b260a4d53a203f537c052a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yinghai Lu Date: Tue, 7 Dec 2010 00:59:49 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86, ioapic: Avoid writing io_apic id if already correct For 32bit mptable path, setup_ids_from_mpc() always writes the io_apic id register, even there is no change needed. Skip the write, when readout and mptable match.
