... on the assumption that no AP will have an APIC ID of zero.

I can see that you may want cpu_setup(0) to run ahead of apic_setup(). Yet
is it really appropriate to run boot_cpu() ahead of apic_setup() as well?
At the very least it feels logically wrong, even if at the moment there
may not be any direct dependency (which might change, however, down the
road).

Nit: Excess blank before closing paren.

And of course this will need doing differently anyway once we get to
support for more than 128 vCPU-s.

I can kind of accept keeping it simple in the name (albeit - why all caps?),
but at least the comment should mention that it may also be an xAPIC ID
that's stored here.

Would be really nice to avoid the literal 21 here by including
xen/arch-x86/cpufeatureset.h. Can this be arranged for?
