x86/tsx: Add a feature bit for TSX control MSR support



commit aaa65d17eec372c6a9756833f3964ba05b05ea14 upstream.

Support for the TSX control MSR is enumerated in MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.
This is different from how other CPU features are enumerated i.e. via
CPUID. Currently, a call to tsx_ctrl_is_supported() is required for
enumerating the feature. In the absence of a feature bit for TSX control,
any code that relies on checking feature bits directly will not work.

In preparation for adding a feature bit check in MSR save/restore
during suspend/resume, set a new feature bit X86_FEATURE_TSX_CTRL when
MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL is present.
