x86/Kconfig: Correct X86_X2APIC help text

Currently, it is not true that the kernel will panic with CONFIG_X86_X2APIC=n
on systems that require it; it will try to disable the APIC and run without
it to at least give the user a clear warning message. See the second
variant of check_x2apic() in arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c .

Also massage some other parts of the help text.
