ACPI: processor: Use _OSC to convey OSPM processor support information

Change acpi_early_processor_osc() to return a value in case of a
failure and make it static.

Also make it run acpi_processor_osc() for every processor object or
processor device found in the ACPI Namespace (previously, its only purpose
was to work around platform firmware defects on Skylake systems).

Introduce a new function called acpi_early_processor_control_setup() that
will invoke acpi_early_processor_osc() first in order to convey the OS
processor support information to the platform firmware and if that fails,
it will fall back to using _PDC.
