Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 26/29] x86: Create library for flushing L1D for L1TF

ASI will need to use this L1D flushing logic so put it in a library
where it can be used independently of KVM.

Since we're creating this library, it starts to look messy if we don't
also use it in the double-opt-in (both kernel cmdline and prctl)
mm-switching flush logic which is there for mitigating Snoop-Assisted L1
Data Sampling ("SAL1DS"). However, that logic doesn't use any
software-based fallback for flushing on CPUs without the L1D_FLUSH
command. In that case the prctl opt-in will fail.

One option would be to just start using the software fallback sequence
currently done by VMX code, but Linus didn't seem happy with a similar
sequence being used here [1]. CPUs affected by SAL1DS are a subset of
those affected by L1TF, so it wouldn't be completely insane to assume
that the same sequence works for both cases, but I'll err on the side of
caution and avoid risk of giving users a false impression that the
kernel has really flushed L1D for them.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/CAHk-=whC4PUhErcoDhCbTOdmPPy-Pj8j9ytsdcyz9TorOb4KUw@mail.gmail.com/

Instead, create this awkward library that is scoped specifically to L1TF,
which will be used only by VMX and ASI, and has an annoying "only
sometimes works" doc-comment. Users of the library can then infer from
that comment whether they have flushed L1D.

No functional change intended.
