fa63030e9c x86/platform: Move APIC ID validity check into platform APIC code
Move APIC ID validity check into platform APIC code, so it can
be overridden when needed. For NumaChip systems, always trust
MADT, as it's constructed with high APIC IDs.

Behaviour verifies on standard x86 systems and on NumaChip
systems with this, and compile-tested with allyesconfig.

44b111b519 x86: Add NumaChip support
Adds support for Numascale NumaChip large-SMP systems. It is
needed to enable the booting of more than ~168 cores.

v2:
 - [Steffen] enumerate only accessible northbridges
 - [Daniel] rediffed and validated against 3.1-rc10

v3:
 - [Daniel] use x86_init core numbering override
 - [Daniel] cleanups as per feedback

v4:
 - [Daniel] use updated x86_cpuinit override

v5:
 - drop disabling interrupts locally, as ISR write is atomic; drop delay
 - added read-mostly annotations where appropriate
 - require CONFIG_SMP, so drop conditional path

Workload tested on 96 cores/16 sockets.
