So you replaced a perfectly readable kernel message:

 -		pr_info("Not enabling interrupt remapping due to skipped IO-APIC setup\n");

... with an unreadable one:

 +		pr_info("Not init interrupt remapping due to skipped IO-APIC setup\n");

Why?

Also, the changelog is pretty much unreadable as well:

> As the commit 2e63ad4bd5dd ("x86/apic: Do not init irq remapping

I edited it to:

   The following commit:

     2e63ad4bd5dd ("x86/apic: Do not init irq remapping if ioapic is disabled") 

   ... added a check for skipped IO-APIC setup to enable_IR_x2apic(), but this 
   check is also duplicated in try_to_enable_IR() - and it will never succeed in 
   calling irq_remapping_enable().

   Remove the whole irq_remapping_enable() complication: if the IO-APIC is 
   disabled we cannot enable IRQ remapping.

And I restored the original pr_info() message as well.

Thanks,

	Ingo
