AMD have always used the architectural MSRs for LER. As the first processor

Intel are about to run out of space in Family 6 and start using 19. It is
only the Pentium 4 which uses non-architectural LER MSRs.
percpu_traps_init(), which runs on every CPU, contains a lot of code which
should be init-only, and is the only reason why opt_ler can't be in initdata.
Write a brand new init_ler() which expects all future Intel and AMD CPUs to
continue using the architectural MSRs, and does all setup together. Call it
from trap_init(), and remove the setup logic percpu_traps_init() except for
the single path configuring MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR.
Leave behind a warning if the user asked for LER and Xen couldn't enable it.

For 4.20. This is needed for Zen5 CPUs (already available) as well as Intel
CPUs coming shortly. It also moves some non-init logic to being init-only.
As a user can enable/disable LER and support for Zen5/Diamond Rapids is added,
and this patch
is already in staging, I think we could mention that in CHANGELOG. If it makes
sense I can do
that during finalization of CHANGELOG before release. Does it make sense?
