x86/srso: Remove 'pred_cmd' label

SBPB is only enabled in two distinct cases:

  1) when SRSO has been disabled with srso=off

  2) when SRSO has been fixed (in future HW)

Simplify the control flow by getting rid of the 'pred_cmd' label and
moving the SBPB enablement check to the two corresponding code sites.
This makes it more clear when exactly SBPB gets enabled.
