X86_FEATURE_PGE determines whether the CPU has enabled global page
translations support. Use the faster cpu_feature_enabled() check to
shave off some more cycles when flushing all TLB entries, including the
global ones.
What this practically saves is:
mov 0x82eb308(%rip),%rax # 0xffffffff8935bec8 <boot_cpu_data+40>
test $0x20,%ah
... which test the bit. Not a lot, but TLB flushing is a timing-sensitive
path, so anything to make it even faster.
No functional changes.
