x86 & x86_64 TODO list

This page list items that are needing addressed with the x86/x86_64 hardware support.
- AROS fails to boot on some hardware with missing or broken ACPI support.
- additional cpu cores sometimes appear to start up at a very low speed (particularly in vm's) resulting in delays when booting and noticeable slowness in code running on those cores.
- MSI interrupt support needs implemented. Some PCI-e drivers explicitly need MSI interrupts to handle all of the possible events the device generates (particularly gigabit NIC drivers).
- currently disabled due to needing adapted/updated with newer drm/kms/x code to work with newer gallium code.
- Most drivers do not work yet on the 64bit builds. Many will need to use bounce buffers when pushing data to the cards due to 32bit limitations in their hardware.
- USB is very problematic under 64bit, needs investigated (e.g. crashing when attempting to format USB keys).
- NVMe devices need a new driver to interface with. Modern pc hardware use this interface to provide high performance IO.
