When running in Xen dom0, we still want to parse the ACPI tables to
find out about local and IO apics, but we don't want to actually use
the lapics.

Put a couple of tests for Xen to prevent lapics from being mapped or
accessed.  This is very Xen-specific behaviour, so there didn't seem to
be any point in adding more indirection.

[ Impact: ignore local apics, which are not usable under Xen ]
