    x86/spec-ctrl: Fix default calculation of opt_srb_lock
    
    Since this logic was introduced, opt_tsx has become more complicated and
    shouldn't be compared to 0 directly.  While there are no buggy logic paths,
    the correct expression is !(opt_tsx & 1) but the rtm_disabled boolean is
    easier and clearer to use.
