RongQing reported that there are some X2APIC id 0xffffffff in his machine's ACPI MADT table, which makes the number of possible CPU inaccurate. The reason is that the ACPI X2APIC parser has no sanity check for APIC ID 0xffffffff, which is an invalid id in all APIC types. See "Intel® 64 Architecture x2APIC Specification", Chapter 2.4.1. Add a sanity check to acpi_parse_x2apic() which ignores the invalid id.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
