Instead of requiring each subclass to call both the init and
realize functions at the right moment, why don't we move the code
that needs to run at instance_init time to cpu_common_initfn()?
(TYPE_CPU's instance_init)

cpu_common_initfn() runs before the subclasses' instance_init
functions. But if we need anything to run _after_ subclasses'
instance_init functions, we can also make TYPE_CPU implement a
instance_post_init function.
