xen/x86: use invpcid for flushing the TLB
If possible use the INVPCID instruction for flushing the TLB instead of
toggling cr4.pge for that purpose.
While at it remove the dependency on cr4.pge being required for mtrr
loading, as this will be required later anyway.
Add a command line option "invpcid" for controlling the use of
INVPCID (default to true).

+By default, Xen will use the INVPCID instruction for TLB management if
+it is available. This option can be used to cause Xen to fall back to
+older mechanisms, which are generally slower.
