x86/fpu, crypto x86/cast5_avx: Simplify the cast5_init() xfeature checks
Use the new 'cpu_has_xfeatures()' function to query AVX CPU support. This has the following advantages to the driver: - Decouples the driver from FPU internals: it's now only using <asm/fpu/api.h>. - Removes detection complexity from the driver, no more raw XGETBV instruction - Shrinks the code a bit. - Standardizes feature name error message printouts across drivers There are also advantages to the x86 FPU code: once all drivers are decoupled from internals we can move them out of common headers and we'll also be able to remove xcr.h.
