    x86/boot: drop pre-C IDT patching
    
    It is not needed now that __start_xen sets itself up with complete trap
    handlers as its first action.  This fixes a potential issue introduced in
    
      c/s 7e510a7b874
      "x86/boot: move some __high_start code and data into init sections"
    
    which would leave ignore_int (in the .init section) patched into the 
reserved
    exceptions in all IDTs.
