On x2apic enabled pvm, doing sysrq+l, got NULL pointer dereference as below.

    SysRq : Show backtrace of all active CPUs
    BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)

That's because apic points to apic_x2apic_cluster or apic_x2apic_phys
but the basic element like cpumask isn't initialized.

Mask x2APIC feature in pvm to avoid overwrite of apic pointer,
update commit message per Konrad's suggestion.
