Tony Luck d9bb405446 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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
