PROBLEM: 4.15.0-rc3 APIC causes lockups on Core 2 Duo laptop

All right, I tried to do some more digging around, in the hope of
getting as close to the source of the problem as I can.

I went back to the very first commit that went astray for me, 2db1f95
(which is the only one actually panicking), and tried to move from its
parent 90ad9e2 (that boots fine) to it gradually, altering the code in
small chunks.

I tried to ignore the stuff that clearly shouldn't make a difference,
such as definitions. So in the end I get defined-but-unused-function
errors in my compilations, but I'm ignoring those for now. Some
results:

(1) When I move from the good commit 90ad9e2 according to the attached
bad-diff (which moves partly towards 2db1f95), I get a panic.

(2) On the other hand, when I further change this last panicking
commit by simply doing
