x86/fred: Remove kernel log message when initializing exceptions (2026-03-27 16:38:24 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
- We made the FRED support an opt-in initially out of fear of it breaking
machines left and right in the case of a hw bug in the first generation of
machines supporting it. Now that that the FRED code has seen a lot of
hammering, flip the logic to be opt-out as is the usual case with new hw
features
