[PATCH 4/4] x86/xen: Enumerate NX from CPUID directly

[Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>]

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>

xen_start_kernel() is some of the first C code run "Xen PV" systems.
It precedes things like setup_arch() or processor initialization code
that would be thought of as "very early".

That means that 'boot_cpu_data' is garbage.  It has not even
established the utter basics like if the CPU supports the CPUID
instruction.  Unfortunately get_cpu_cap() requires this exact
information.

Nevertheless, xen_start_kernel() calls get_cpu_cap().  But it
works out in practice because it's looking for the NX bit which
comes from an extended CPUID leaf that doesn't depend on
c->cpuid_level being set.

Stop calling get_cpu_cap().  Use CPUID directly.  Add a little
helper to avoid cluttering up the xen_start_kernel() flow.

This removes the risky, barely-working call to get_cpu_cap().

Note: The '& 31' strips the "capability" word off of an
      X86_FEATURE_* value.  It's a magic number, but there are
      a few of them sparsely scattered around and it's way
      shorter than any helper.
