Subject: [PATCH 1/3] x86/cpu: Process all CPUID dependencies after identifying
 CPU info

Process all CPUID dependencies to ensure that a dependent is disabled if
one or more of its parent features is unsupported.  As is, cpuid_deps is
processed if an only if a feature is explicitly disabled via
clear_cpu_cap(), which makes it annoying/dangerous to use cpuid_deps for
features whose parent(s) do not always have explicit processing.

E.g. VMX and SGX depend on the synthetic X86_FEATURE_MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL,
but there is no common location to clear MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL, and so
consumers of VMX and SGX are forced to check MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL on top
of the dependent feature.

Manually clearing X86_FEATURE_MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL is the obvious
alternative, but it's subtly more difficult that updating
init_ia32_feat_ctl().  CONFIG_IA32_FEAT_CTL depends on any of
CONFIG_CPU_SUP_{INTEL,CENATUR,ZHAOXIN}, but init_ia32_feat_ctl() is
invoked if and only if the actual CPU type matches one of the
aforementioned CPU_SUP_* types. E.g. running a kernel built with

  CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL=y
  CONFIG_CPU_SUP_AMD=y
  # CONFIG_CPU_SUP_HYGON is not set
  # CONFIG_CPU_SUP_CENTAUR is not set
  # CONFIG_CPU_SUP_ZHAOXIN is not set

on a Cenatur or Zhaoxin CPU will leave X86_FEATURE_VMX set but not set
X86_FEATURE_MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL, and will never call init_ia32_feat_ctl()
to give the kernel a convenient opportunity to clear
X86_FEATURE_MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL.
