[PATCH v3 2/3] x86/cpu/intel: Remove the F00F bug workaround notice

[Sohil Mehta <sohil.mehta@intel.com>]

The F00F bug workaround announcement goes through a lot of effort to
print the kernel notice exactly once. CPU bugs with workarounds
typically don't require user notifications. If needed, the presence of
the F00F bug can be determined through /proc/cpuinfo.

Remove the notice and the surrounding logic to print it once.
