Add IOAPIC support for Intel 82371EB and fixup SMP on ASUS P2B-D.
- Add enable_intel_82093aa_ioapic() which enables IOAPIC usage in the Intel 82371EB southbridge (sets the proper chip-select) and sets an IOAPIC ID. - We only call enable_intel_82093aa_ioapic() if a board does "select IOAPIC" as on 82371EB-based boards the IOAPIC is an external chip (not integrated in the southbridge) and it's only populated on multi-CPU boards. That is, we cannot unconditionally enable it, only on SMP-capable boards. - Due to the reason explained above, remove "select IOAPIC" from src/southbridge/intel/i82371eb/Kconfig, and add it to src/mainboard/asus/p2b-d/Kconfig. - Also set CONFIG_MAX_PHYSICAL_CPUS to 2 on ASUS P2B-D. There are two CPU sockets (Slot 1) and each CPU can only have one core, multi-core CPUs didn't exist in that era (CONFIG_MAX_CPUS was set to 2 already). - Drop useless/duplicated enable_lapic() call from ASUS P2B-D's romstage.c, that function is always called if either CONFIG_SMP and/or CONFIG_IOAPIC are set. - Rework ASUS P2B-D mptable.c to fix a number of things: - Convert it to use mptable_write_buses() as all mptable.c files should do. - Fix incorrect IOAPICID (it's 0x11 for the external 82093AA IOAPIC). - Fix a bunch of hardcoded bus IDs, remove incorrect entries, etc. This is build-tested on ASUS P2B-D, and also boot-tested successfully there. On Linux I now get two entries in /proc/cpuinfo (where only one appeared before this patch), i.e. both populated CPUs are found.
