There are three positions for initializing the interrupt delivery modes: 1) In IRQ initial function, may setup the through-local-APIC virtual wire mode.
2) In an SMP-capable system, will try to switch to symmetric I/O model when preparing the cpus in native_smp_prepare_cpus(). 3) In UP system with UP_LATE_INIT=y, will set up local APIC and I/O APIC in smp_init(). Switching to symmetric I/O model is so late, which causes the dump-capture kernel hangs with 'notsc' option inherited from 1st kernel option. Preparatory patch to initialize an interrupt mode directly and provide a new function init_interrupt_mode() to unify that three positions and do that setup as soon as possible.
