Just brought the SIS based Xeon box up on -51-28 with CONFIG_IOAPIC_FAST
and without the noapic option, and all is well. On -50-43, noapic was
needed to avoid the spurious interrupt and APIC error on CPU0 messages.

Are there any non-SIS chipsets out there that need the sis_apic_bug
checks? What about IOAPIC_POSTFLUSH?
