Subject: x86: Make X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK detectable in CPUID on AMD

From: Rudolf Marek <r.marek@assembler.cz>

commit f2dbad36c55e5d3a91dccbde6e8cae345fe5632f upstream.

[ Note, this is a Git cherry-pick of the following commit:

    2b67799bdf25 ("x86: Make X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK detectable in CPUID on AMD")

  ... for easier x86 PTI code testing and back-porting. ]

The latest AMD AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual
adds a CPUID feature XSaveErPtr (CPUID_Fn80000008_EBX[2]).

If this feature is set, the FXSAVE, XSAVE, FXSAVEOPT, XSAVEC, XSAVES
/ FXRSTOR, XRSTOR, XRSTORS always save/restore error pointers,
thus making the X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK workaround obsolete on such CPUs.
