Booting with mitigations=off incorrectly prevents the X86_FEATURE_{IBPB_BRTYPE,SBPB} CPUID bits from getting set. Also, future CPUs without X86_BUG_SRSO might still have IBPB with branch type prediction flushing, in which case SBPB should be used instead of IBPB. The current code doesn't allow for that. Also, cpu_has_ibpb_brtype_microcode() has some surprising side effects and the setting of these feature bits really doesn't belong in the mitigation code anyway. Move it to earlier.
