[PATCH 7/7] x86/boot/32: Rewrite test_wp_bit()

[Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>]

This code seems to be very old and has gotten only minor updates.
Nowadays we have a shiny function probe_kernel_write() that does
more or less exactly what we need.  Use it.

While we're at it, remove cpuinfo_x86::wp_works_ok, since we panic
on kernels where wp doesn't work okay.
