x86/cpu: Allow feature bit names from /proc/cpuinfo in clearcpuid=

Having to give the X86_FEATURE array indices in order to disable a
feature bit for testing is not really user-friendly. So accept the
feature bit names too.

Some feature bits don't have names so there the array indices are still
accepted, of course.

Clearing CPUID flags is not something which should be done in production
so taint the kernel too.

An exemplary cmdline would then be something like:

  clearcpuid=de,440,smca,succory,bmi1,3dnow

("succory" is wrong on purpose). And it says:

  [   ... ] Clearing CPUID bits: de 13:24 smca (unknown: succory) bmi1 3dnow

Disable CPUID feature X for the kernel. See
arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h for the valid bit
numbers. Note the Linux specific bits are not necessarily
stable over kernel options, but the vendor specific
numbers X. Note the Linux-specific bits are not necessarily
stable over kernel options, but the vendor-specific
ones should be.
X can also be a string as appearing in the flags: line
in /proc/cpuinfo which does not have the above
instability issue. However, not all features have names
in /proc/cpuinfo.
Note that using this option will taint your kernel.
Also note that user programs calling CPUID directly
or using the feature without checking anything
will still see it. This just prevents it from
