x86, cpu: Enable/disable Supervisor Mode Execution Protection
Enable/disable newly documented SMEP (Supervisor Mode Execution Protection) CPU
feature in kernel. CR4.SMEP (bit 20) is 0 at power-on. If the feature is
supported by CPU (X86_FEATURE_SMEP), enable SMEP by setting CR4.SMEP. New kernel
option nosmep disables the feature even if the feature is supported by CPU.
[ hpa: moved the call to setup_smep() until after the vendor-specific
initialization; that ensures that CPUID features are unmasked. We
will still run it before we have userspace (never mind uncontrolled
userspace). ]
