i386: Use global flag to disable broken local apic timer on AMD CPUs.
The Averatec 2370 and some other Turion laptop BIOS seems to program the ENABLE_C1E MSR inconsistently between cores. This confuses the lapic use heuristics because when C1E is enabled anywhere it seems to affect the complete chip. Use a global flag instead of a per cpu flag to handle this. If any CPU has C1E enabled disabled lapic use. Thanks to Cal Peake for debugging.
