x86/msr: Prepare for including <linux/percpu.h> into <asm/msr.h>



To clean up the per CPU insanity of UP which causes sparse to be rightfully
unhappy and prevents the usage of the generic per CPU accessors on cpu_info
it is necessary to include <linux/percpu.h> into <asm/msr.h>.

Including <linux/percpu.h> into <asm/msr.h> is impossible because it ends
up in header dependency hell. The problem is that <asm/processor.h>
includes <asm/msr.h>. The inclusion of <linux/percpu.h> results in a
compile fail where the compiler cannot longer handle an include in
<asm/cpufeature.h> which references boot_cpu_data which is
defined in <asm/processor.h>.

The only reason why <asm/msr.h> is included in <asm/processor.h> are the
set/get_debugctlmsr() inlines. They are defined there because <asm/processor.h>
is such a nice dump ground for everything. In fact they belong obviously
into <asm/debugreg.h>.

Move them to <asm/debugreg.h> and fix up the resulting damage which is just
exposing the reliance on random include chains.
