[PATCH] vmi: apic ops

Use para_fill instead of directly setting the APIC ops to the result of the
vmi_get_function call - this allows one to implement a VMI ROM without
implementing APIC functions, just using the native APIC functions.

While doing this, I realized that there is a lot more cleanup that should have
been done.  Basically, we should never assume that the ROM implements a
specific set of functions, and always allow fallback to the native
implementation.

This is critical for future compatibility.
