I don't recommend leaving it up for later like this, or at least put a
fat XXX that you will remember.

Thanks for the tip. I'll add a TODO label in the blocks to replace.

This work (to recover old APIC structures and cpu_number()) is a previous step to implement cpus enumeration.
The real LAPIC address will be get from ACPI tables during cpus enumeration, which will be implemented soon,

This kind of leaving problems under the carpet *always* bite sooner or
later (hopefully sooner so that you remember about it).

Getting the thing to compile is a good thing, but writing the correct
things is a really important one before proceeding further, notably for
such ground bits.
