x86/cpu: Add workaround for MONITOR instruction erratum on Goldmont based CPUs
Monitored cached line may not wake up from mwait on certain Goldmont based CPUs. This patch will avoid calling current_set_polling_and_test() and thereby not set the TIF_ flag. The result is that we'll always send IPIs for wakeups.
