x86/cpu: Validate CPUID leaf 0x2 EDX output

CPUID leaf 0x2 emits one-byte descriptors in its four output registers
EAX, EBX, ECX, and EDX. For these descriptors to be valid, the most
significant bit (MSB) of each register must be clear.

Leaf 0x2 parsing at intel.c only validated the MSBs of EAX, EBX, and
ECX, but left EDX unchecked.

Validate EDX's most-significant bit as well.
