x86, x2apic: use virtual wire A mode in disable_IO_APIC() with interrupt-remapping



Impact: make kexec work with x2apic

disable_IO_APIC() gets called during crashdump aswell, which configures the
IO-APIC/LAPIC so that legacy interrupts can be delivered for the kexec'd kernel.

In the presence of interrupt-remapping, we need to change the
interrupt-remapping configuration aswell as modifying IO-APIC for virtual wire
B mode.

To keep things simple during the crash, use virtual wire A mode
(for which we don't need to touch io-apic and interrupt-remapping tables).
