[PATCH] x86: implement cpuid() in terms of cpuid_count()

[Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx>]

Since as a bug workaround (likely inapplicable to any 64-bit CPUs, but
it probably doesn't hurt to keep this) we clear %ecx on input anyway,
we can as well fall back to cpuid_count(). This allows getting rid of
four risky casts and makes things type-safe. The latter aspect requires
two type adjustments elsewhere. While adjusting init_intel_cacheinfo(),
convert three other local variables there as well. For the struct
cpuinfo_x86 change it is relevant to note that no 64-bit CPU comes
without CPUID support, and hence cpuid_level is never set to -1; the
comment there was simply stale.

No functional change intended, yet of course generated code isn't
identical.

It may also be interesting to see whether this addresses issues Coverity
recently spotted (in error), in spec-ctrl.c:print_details(). Andrew
considers cpuid() being (just) a macro as a possible reason.

I'm willing to switch to an inline function, but I chose the macro route
because this way it's less code (and hence less redundancy) overall,
without any loss of functionality.
