Subject: [PATCH 2/4] x86: remove unused code and data in nexgen.c

Nobody calls the function nexgen_init_cpu(), therefore it
can be removed. The variable nexgen_cpu_dev is used only by
this function, so this patch removes useless data as well.

This patch was build-tested using defconfigs for i386 and x86_64.
It also survived a few randconfig instances for i386. Runtime
tests were performed by booting 32-bit and 64-bit x86 boxen up to
the shell prompt.
