Hmm, that sounds wrong.. one would expect something like BAD_APICID, -1
or the correct number. hpa should we fix that?

Anyway,

Well you don't really need the value for offline CPUs, until they're
online right? So all you need to do is iterate all the box muck in a
hotplug handler and set the right pointer, no? (I suspect this would
need to be done in CPU_STARTING).
