sched: Don't export sched_mc_power_savings on multi-socket single core system
Fix to prevent sched_mc_power_saving from being exported through sysfs
for multi-scoket single core system. Max cores should be always greater than
one (1). My earlier patch that introduced fix for not exporting
'sched_mc_power_saving' on laptops broke it on multi-socket single core
system. This fix addresses issue on both laptop and multi-socket single
core system.
Below are the Test results:
1. Single socket - multi-core
Before Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving'
After Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving'
Result: Pass
2. Multi Socket - single core
Before Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving'
After Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving'
Result: Pass
3. Multi Socket - Multi core
Before Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving'
After Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving'
[ Impact: make the sched_mc_power_saving control available more consistently ]

x86: read apic ID in the !acpi_lapic case
Ed found that on 32-bit, boot_cpu_physical_apicid is not read right,
when the mptable is broken.
Interestingly, actually three paths use/set it:
1. acpi: at that time that is already read from reg
2. mptable: only read from mptable
3. no madt, and no mptable, that use default apic id 0 for 64-bit, -1 for 32-bit
so we could read the apic id for the 2/3 path. We trust the hardware
register more than we trust a BIOS data structure (the mptable).
We can also avoid the double set_fixmap() when acpi_lapic
is used, and also need to move cpu_has_apic earlier and
call apic_disable().
Also when need to update the apic id, we'd better read and
set the apic version as well - so that quirks are applied precisely.
