Move them to a separate header and have the following
dependency:
x86/cpufeatures.h <- x86/processor.h <- x86/cpufeature.h
This makes it easier to use the header in asm code and not
include the whole cpufeature.h and add guards for asm.

... from the final ELF image's symbol table as they're not
really needed there.
Before:
$ readelf -a vmlinux | grep verify_cpu
43: ffffffff810001a9 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu
45: ffffffff8100028f 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu_no_longmode
46: ffffffff810001de 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu_noamd
47: ffffffff8100022b 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu_check
48: ffffffff8100021c 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu_clear_xd
49: ffffffff81000263 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu_sse_test
50: ffffffff81000296 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu_sse_ok
After:
$ readelf -a vmlinux | grep verify_cpu
43: ffffffff810001a9 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 verify_cpu
No functionality change.

When we get loaded by a 64-bit bootloader, kernel entry point is
startup_64 in head_64.S. We don't trust any and all bootloaders because
some will fiddle with CPU configuration so we go ahead and massage each
CPU into sanity again.
For example, some dell BIOSes have this XD disable feature which set
IA32_MISC_ENABLE[34] and disable NX. This might be some dumb workaround
for other OSes but Linux sure doesn't need it.
A similar thing is present in the Surface 3 firmware - see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106051 - which sets this bit
only on the BSP:
# rdmsr -a 0x1a0
400850089
850089
850089
850089
I know, right?!
There's not even an off switch in there.
So fix all those cases by sanitizing the 64-bit entry point too. For
that, make verify_cpu() callable in 64-bit mode also.

The XD_DISABLE-clearing side-effect needs to happen for both 32bit
and 64bit, but the 32bit init routines were not calling verify_cpu()
yet. This adds that call to gain the side-effect.
The longmode/SSE tests being performed in verify_cpu() need to happen very
early for 64bit but not for 32bit. Instead of including it in two places
for 32bit, we can just include it once in arch/x86/kernel/head_32.S.

Intel CPUs have an additional MSR bit to indicate if the BIOS was
configured to disable the NX cpu feature. This bit was traditionally
used for operating systems that did not understand how to handle the
NX bit. Since Linux understands this, this BIOS flag should be ignored
by default.
In a review[1] of reported hardware being used by Ubuntu bug reporters,
almost 10% of systems had an incorrectly configured BIOS, leaving their
systems unable to use the NX features of their CPU.
This change will clear the MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE_XD_DISABLE bit so that NX
cannot be inappropriately controlled by the BIOS on Intel CPUs. If, under
very strange hardware configurations, NX actually needs to be disabled,
"noexec=off" can be used to restore the prior behavior.

The code is 32bit already, and can be used in 32bit routines.
