Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] x86/cpuid: refactor setup_clear_cpu_cap()/clear_cpu_cap()

Currently setup_clear_cpu_cap passes NULL 'struct cpuinfo_x86*'
to clear_cpu_cap to indicate that capability should be cleared from boot_cpu_data.

Later that is used in clear_feature to do recursive call to
clear_cpu_cap together with clearing the feature bit from 'cpu_caps_cleared'

Remove that code and just call the do_clear_cpu_cap on boot_cpu_data directly
from the setup_clear_cpu_cap.

The only functional change this introduces is that now calling clear_cpu_cap
explicitly on boot_cpu_data also sets the bits in cpu_caps_cleared,
which is the only thing that makes sense anyway.

All callers of both functions were checked for this and fixed.
