Subject: x86/fpu: Parse clearcpuid= as early XSAVE argument

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

commit 0c2a3913d6f50503f7c59d83a6219e39508cc898 upstream.

With a followon patch we want to make clearcpuid affect the XSAVE
configuration. But xsave is currently initialized before arguments
are parsed. Move the clearcpuid= parsing into the special
early xsave argument parsing code.

Since clearcpuid= contains a = we need to keep the old __setup
around as a dummy, otherwise it would end up as a environment
variable in init's environment.
