x86: handle PAT more like other CPU features



Impact: Cleanup

When PAT was originally introduced, it was handled specially for a few
reasons:

- PAT bugs are hard to track down, so we wanted to maintain a
  whitelist of CPUs.
- The i386 and x86-64 CPUID code was not yet unified.

Both of these are now obsolete, so handle PAT like any other features,
including ordinary feature blacklisting due to known bugs.
