Linux guest images that have known kernel bugs related to virtualized apic
initialization previously would sporadically hang. For images where the
kernel cannot be upgraded, a ``[workarounds]`` config option has been
introduced:
``[workarounds]libvirt_disable_apic``
This option is primarily intended for CI and development clouds as a bridge
for operators to mitigate the issue while they work with their upstream
image vendors.
