x86/fpu: Disable XGETBV1 when no XSAVE 

When "noxsave" is given as a command-line input, the kernel
should disable XGETBV1. This issue currently does not cause any
actual problems. XGETBV1 is only useful if we have something
using the 'init optimization' (i.e. xsaveopt, xsaves). We
already clear both of those in fpu__xstate_clear_all_cpu_caps().
But this is good for completeness.
