For reference I've found that an alternative is to set the following
in loader.conf:-
hint.lapic.2.disabled=1
hint.lapic.3.disabled=1

2 and 3 here are the apic numbers displayed by dmesg on boot for the
cpu's

Obviously this requires a reboot so no perfect for all uses but it does
work for what we're testing.
