x86/xen: Mark xen_cpuid() stack frame as non-standard

objtool reports the following false positive warning:

  arch/x86/xen/enlighten.o: warning: objtool: xen_cpuid()+0x41: can't find jump dest instruction at .text+0x108

The warning is due to xen_cpuid()'s use of XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX to insert
some fake instructions which objtool doesn't know how to decode.
