x86, xsave: Make xstate_enable_boot_cpu() __init, protect on CPU 0
xstate_enable_boot_cpu() is, as the name implies, only used on the
boot CPU; furthermore, it invokes alloc_bootmem(), which is __init;
hence it needs to be tagged __init rather than __cpuinit.
Furthermore, it is *not* safe in the long run to rely on CPU 0 only
coming online during the early boot -- at some point we're going to
support offlining (and re-onlining) the boot CPU, and at that point we
must not call xstate_enable_boot_cpu() again.
The code is a fair bit more obscure than one would like, because the
__ref overrides aren't quite powerful enough.
