Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86: restore MISC_ENABLE MSR in realmode wakeup

Some BIOSes will reset the Intel MISC_ENABLE MSR (specifically the
XD_DISABLE bit) when resuming from S3, which can interact poorly with
ebba638ae723d8a8fc2f7abce5ec18b688b791d7. In 32bit PAE mode, this can
lead to a fault when EFER is restored by the kernel wakeup routines,
due to it setting the NX bit for a CPU that (thanks to the BIOS reset)
now incorrectly thinks it lacks the NX feature. (64bit is not affected
because it uses a common CPU bring-up that specifically handles the
XD_DISABLE bit.)

The need for MISC_ENABLE being restored so early is specific to the S3
resume path. Normally, MISC_ENABLE is saved in save_processor_state(),
but this happens after the resume header is created, so just reproduce
the logic here. (acpi_suspend_lowlevel() creates the header, calls
do_suspend_lowlevel, which calls save_processor_state(), so the saved
processor context isn't available during resume header creation.)
