Subject: x86/cpu: Fix check for RDPKRU in __show_regs()

From: David Kaplan <david.kaplan@xxxxxxx>

commit b53c6bd5d271d023857174b8fd3e32f98ae51372 upstream.

cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_OSPKE) does not necessarily reflect
whether CR4.PKE is set on the CPU.  In particular, they may differ on
non-BSP CPUs before setup_pku() is executed.  In this scenario, RDPKRU
will #UD causing the system to hang.

Fix by checking CR4 for PKE enablement which is always correct for the
current CPU.

The scenario happens by inserting a WARN* before setup_pku() in
identiy_cpu() or some other diagnostic which would lead to calling
__show_regs().
