When applying the hotplug hack to match x2APIC IDs for vCPUs in xAPIC mode, check the target APID ID for being unaddressable in xAPIC mode instead of checking the vCPU's x2APIC ID, and in that case proceed as if apic_x2apic_mode(vcpu) were true. Functionally, it does not matter whether you compare kvm_x2apic_id(apic) or mda with 0xff, since the two values are then checked for equality. But in isolation, checking the x2APIC ID takes an unnecessary dependency on the x2APIC ID being read-only (which isn't strictly true on AMD CPUs, and is difficult to document as well); it also requires KVM to fallthrough and check the xAPIC ID as well to deal with a writable xAPIC ID, whereas the xAPIC ID _can't_ match a target ID greater than 0xff. Opportunistically reword the comment to call out the various subtleties, and to fix a typo reported by Zhang Jiaming. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
