When flag_is_changeable_p() is unused, it prevents kernel builds
with clang, `make W=1` and CONFIG_WERROR=y:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:351:19: error: unused function 'flag_is_changeable_p' [-Werror,-Wunused-function]
  351 | static inline int flag_is_changeable_p(u32 flag)
      |                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by marking it with __maybe_unused.

See also commit 6863f5643dd7 ("kbuild: allow Clang to find unused static
inline functions for W=1 build").

...and it should be done for 64-bit case.
