The extended LVT entries can be used to configure interrupt delivery
for various events that are internal to a processor and can use this
feature.
All current processors that support the feature have four of such entries.
The entries are all masked upon the processor reset, but it's possible
that firmware may use some of them.
BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guides for some processor models do not assign
any particular names to the extended LVTs, while other BKDGs provide names
and suggested usage for them.
However, there is no fixed mapping between the LVTs and the processor
events in any processor model that support the feature. Any entry can be
assigned to any event. The assignment is done by programming an offset
of an entry into configuration bits corresponding to an event.
This change does not expose the flexibility that the feature offers.
The change adds just a single method to configure a hardcoded extended LVT
entry to deliver APIC_CMC_INT. The method is designed to be used with
Machine Check Error Thresholding mechanism on supported processor models.
For references please see BKDGs for families 10h - 16h and specifically
descriptions of APIC30, APIC400, APIC[530:500] registers.
For a description of the Error Thresholding mechanism see, for example,
BKDG for family 10h, section 2.12.1.6.
