Track all possibilities for the optimized APIC map's logical modes
instead of overloading the pseudo-bitmap and treating any "unknown" value
as "invalid".
As documented by the now-stale comment above the mode values, the values
did have meaning when the optimized map was originally added. That
dependent logical was removed by commit e45115b62f9a ("KVM: x86: use
physical LAPIC array for logical x2APIC"), but the obfuscated behavior
and its comment were left behind.
Opportunistically rename "mode" to "logical_mode", partly to make it
clear that the "disabled" case applies only to the logical map, but also
to prove that there is no lurking code that expects "mode" to be a bitmap.
Functionally, this is a glorified nop.

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.
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.
