 Definitely not. The system in this report does do the MP config using ACPI
 and the configuration is valid. The problem is much further down, where
 the current configuration of an interrupt link device is being read. That
 fails so that it's not really possible for the interrupt code to properly
 set up the interrupt routing. The system should continue to boot (falling
 back to PIC mode instead of (IO-)APIC) by simply continuing out of that
 panic. Possibly the link device in question isn't enabled and if not
 actually needed doesn't need to provide the current config. Other than
 that an initial configuration might be inferable by some other means, but
 I'll need to look into that again.
