Subject: [PATCH] x86/fpu: set X86_FEATURE_OSXSAVE feature after enabling OSXSAVE in CR4

0Day found a 34.6% regression in stress-ng's 'af-alg' test case [1], and
bisected it to commit b81fac906a8f ("x86/fpu: Move FPU initialization
into arch_cpu_finalize_init()"), which optimizes the FPU init order,
and moves the CR4_OSXSAVE enabling into a later place:

   arch_cpu_finalize_init
       identify_boot_cpu
	   identify_cpu
	       generic_identify
                   get_cpu_cap --> setup cpu capability
       ...
       fpu__init_cpu
           fpu__init_cpu_xstate
               cr4_set_bits(X86_CR4_OSXSAVE);

And it makes 'X86_FEATURE_OSXSAVE' feature bit missed in cpu capability
setup. Many security module like 'camellia_aesni_avx_x86_64' depends on
this feature, and will fail to be loaded after the commit, causing the
regression.

So set X86_FEATURE_OSXSAVE feature right after OSXSAVE enabling to fix it.
