The current md_clear routines duplicate a lot of code, and have to be
called twice because if one of the mitigations gets enabled they all
get enabled since it's the same instruction. This approach leads to
code duplication and extra complexity.
The only piece that really changes between the first call of
*_select_mitigation() and the second is X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_CPU_BUF
being set. Determine if this feature should be set prior to calling
the _select_mitigation() routines. This not only means those functions
only get called once, but it also simplifies them as well.
