x86/speculation: Use synthetic bits for IBRS/IBPB/STIBP

Intel and AMD have different CPUID bits hence for those use synthetic bits
which get set on the respective vendor's in init_speculation_control(). So
that debacles like what the commit message of

  93a151e63854 ("x86/cpu: Restore CPUID_8000_0008_EBX reload")

talks about don't happen anymore.
