$ git grep boot_cpu_has arch/x86/crypto | wc -l
87
$ git grep cpu_feature_enabled arch/x86/crypto | wc -l
0

It wouldn't make sense to change just this one.  Should they really all be
changed?

I see that cpu_feature_enabled() uses code patching while boot_cpu_has() does
not.  All these checks occur once at module load time, though, so code patching
wouldn't be beneficial.
