    x86/cpuid: detect null segment behaviour on Zen2 CPUs
    
    All Zen2 CPUs actually have this behaviour, but the CPUID bit couldn't
    be introduced into Zen2 due to a lack of leaves. So, it was added in a
    new leaf in Zen3. Nonetheless, hypervisors can synthesize the CPUID
    bit in software.
    
    So, Xen probes for NSCB (NullSelectorClearsBit) and
    synthesizes the bit, if the behaviour is present.
