[PATCH] x86/ucode: Fix stability of the Raw CPU Policy rescan

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Always run microcode_update_helper() on the BSP, so the the updated Raw CPU
policy doesn't get non-BSP topology details included.

Have calculate_raw_cpu_policy() clear the instantanious XSTATE sizes.  The
value XCR0 | MSR_XSS had when we scanned the policy isn't terribly interesting
to report.

When CPUID Masking is active, it affects CPUID instructions issued by Xen
too.  Transiently disable masking to get a clean scan.

Fixes: 694d79ed5aac ("x86/ucode: Refresh raw CPU policy after microcode load")

I debased adding named fields for the instantious xstate sizes, but decided
not to.  There's no (other) case where I can see them reasonably being used.
