- Add a function to set the Task Priority Register (TPR) of the local APIC.

  Currently this is only used to initiailize the TPR to 0 during initial
  setup.
- Reallocate vectors for the local APIC timer, error, and thermal LVT
  entries.  The timer entry is allocated from the top of the I/O interrupt
  range reducing the number of vectors available for hardware interrupts
  to 191.  Linux happens to use the same exact vector for its timer
  interrupt as well.  If the timer vector shared the same priority queue
  as the IPI handlers, then the frequency that the timer vector will
  eventually be firing at can interact badly with the IPIs resulting in
  the queue filling and the dreaded IPI stuck panics, hence it being located
  at the top of the previous priority queue instead.
- Fixup various minor nits in comments.
