x86/amd: Work around CLFLUSH ordering on older parts
On pre-CLFLUSHOPT AMD CPUs, CLFLUSH is weakely ordered with everything,
including reads and writes to the address, and LFENCE/SFENCE instructions.
This creates a multitude of problematic corner cases, laid out in the
manual.
Arrange to use MFENCE on both sides of the CLFLUSH to force proper ordering.
This is part of XSA-402.
