x86/cpu: Ensure that CPU info updates are propagated on UP
The boot sequence evaluates CPUID information twice: 1) During early boot 2) When finalizing the early setup right before mitigations are selected and alternatives are patched. In both cases the evaluation is stored in boot_cpu_data, but on UP the copying of boot_cpu_data to the per CPU info of the boot CPU happens between #1 and #2. So any update which happens in #2 is never propagated to the per CPU info instance. Consolidate the whole logic and copy boot_cpu_data right before applying alternatives as that's the point where boot_cpu_data is in it's final state and not supposed to change anymore. This also removes the voodoo mb() from smp_prepare_cpus_common() which had absolutely no purpose.
