It will be thankful for not renaming the file into apic_id.c, because apic id is x86 specific,
and platform like ARM will also add some code to get cpu hardware id via GICC structure
in MADT table in that file, apic id is not a generic name for both x86 and ARM, I prefer to
keep it as it is :)
Thanks
Hanjun
