Subject: [PATCH 05/11] x86, mpx: add MPX to disaabled features


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

This allows us to use cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_MPX) as
both a runtime and compile-time check.

When CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MPX is disabled,
cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_MPX) will evaluate at
compile-time to 0. If CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MPX=y, then the cpuid
flag will be checked at runtime.
