KVM: x86: Perform hardware_enable in CPU_STARTING callback
The CPU_STARTING callback was added upstream with the intention of being used for KVM, specifically for the hardware enablement that must be done before we can run in hardware virt. It had bugs on the x86_64 architecture at the time, where it was called after CPU_ONLINE. The arches have since merged and the bug is gone. It might be noted other features should probably start making use of this callback; microcode updates in particular which might be fixing important erratums would be best applied before beginning to run user tasks.
