Lukasz Odzioba dd853fd216 x86/cpu: Fix bootup crashes by sanitizing the argument of the 'clearcpuid=' command-line option 
A negative number can be specified in the cmdline which will be used as
setup_clear_cpu_cap() argument. With that we can clear/set some bit in
memory predceeding boot_cpu_data/cpu_caps_cleared which may cause kernel
to misbehave. This patch adds lower bound check to setup_disablecpuid().

Boris Petkov reproduced a crash:

  [    1.234575] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffff858bd540
  [    1.236535] IP: memcpy_erms+0x6/0x10
