[PATCH] x86/CPU: Sync CPU feature flags late

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

This is for the case where we need to set feature flags late, like, for
example, after late microcode patch has been loaded which has enabled
new CPUID bits.

This has no effect on alternatives patching.
