If distro puts "noapic nolapic" on kernel command line, I'd say users
are unlikely to remove it.. And if they do remove it and it breaks,
they'll only blame themselves...
One more config-option is also not "cheap" (half of users will get it
wrong), and having config-option to change command-line-default seems
wrong to me.
[Well, you could add CONFIG_CMDLINE to i386, like arm has... that
solves more than just this problem...]
