Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] selftests/x86/amx: Fix the test to avoid failure when AMX is unavailable

When a CPU does not have AMX, the test fails. But this is wrong as it
should be runnable regardless. Skip the test instead.

Also, simplify the feature check using arch_prctl() instead of CPUID. The
syscall is more trustworthy as the kernel controls the feature permission.
