Subject: [PATCH v1 0/2] x86: CPUID refactorings: follow-up

Hi,

These are minor post-mortem patches for the merged CPUID bugfixes and
refactorings at tip:x86/cpu.

The first removes a no-longer-used macro.

The second standardizes all instances of CPUID(N) to CPUID(0xN), as the
CPUID(0xN) style is now the standard in the upcoming cached CPUID model.
It is more concise than "CPUID leaf 0xN" as used in the previous patch
queues commit logs and aligns better with extended leaf references like
CPUID(0x80000005) and CPUID(0x8000001d).

Thanks,

8<-----
