x86/pti: Fix kernel warnings for pti= and nopti cmdline options

Parse the pti= and nopti cmdline options using early_param to fix 'Unknown
kernel command line parameters "nopti", will be passed to user space'
warnings in the kernel log when nopti or pti= are passed to the kernel
cmdline on x86 platforms.

Additionally allow the kernel to warn for malformed pti= options.
