x86/cpu: Fix PPIN initialization



On systems that enumerate PPIN (protected processor inventory
number) using CPUID, but where the BIOS locked the MSR to
prevent access /proc/cpuinfo reports "intel_ppin" feature as
present on all logical CPUs except for CPU 0.

This happens because ppin_init() uses x86_match_cpu() to
determine whether PPIN is supported. When called on CPU 0
the test for locked PPIN MSR results in:

	clear_cpu_cap(c, info->feature);

This clears the X86 FEATURE bit in boot_cpu_data. When other
CPUs are brought online the x86_match_cpu() fails, and the
PPIN FEATURE bit remains set for those other CPUs.

Fix by using setup_clear_cpu_cap() instead of clear_cpu_cap()
which force clears the FEATURE bit for all CPUS.
