[PATCH 2/4] x86/fpu: Disable XGETBV1 when no XSAVE

[yu-cheng yu]

When "noxsave" is given as a command-line input, the kernel should disable
XGETBV1. This issue currently does not cause any actual problems. XGETBV1
is only useful if we have something using the 'init optimization' (i.e.
xsaveopt, xsaves). We already clear both of those in
fpu__xstate_clear_all_cpu_caps(). But this is good for completeness.
