Now ARM64 support is being added to ACPI so architecture specific
values can not be used in core ACPI code.

Following on the patch "ACPI / processor: Check if LAPIC is present
during initialization" which uses acpi_lapic in acpi_processor.c,
on ARM64 platform, GIC is used instead of local APIC, so acpi_lapic
is not a suitable value for ARM64.

What is actually important at this point is the SMPness of the system,
so introduce acpi_arch_is_smp() to be arch specific and generic.

Why this name?  In particular, local APIC being present doesn't imply SMP.
Hmm, agreed. How about acpi_has_cpu_in_madt()? As we know,
Local APIC/SAPIC in MADT stands for CPU in the system, how about
the function name above?

Also

	return !!acpi_lapic;

would be cleaner IMO.
I will update it as you suggested.

Thanks
