Peter Zijlstra d7caac991f x86/cpu/amd: Add Spectral Chicken ...

Zen2 uarchs have an undocumented, unnamed, MSR that contains a chicken
bit for some speculation behaviour. It needs setting.

Note: very belatedly AMD released naming; it's now officially called
      MSR_AMD64_DE_CFG2 and MSR_AMD64_DE_CFG2_SUPPRESS_NOBR_PRED_BIT
      but shall remain the SPECTRAL CHICKEN.
