x86/iommu: check for CMPXCHG16B when enabling IOMMU

All hardware with VT-d/AMD-Vi has CMPXCHG16B support. Check this at
initialisation time, and otherwise refuse to use the IOMMU.

If the local APICs support x2APIC mode the IOMMU support for interrupt
remapping will be checked earlier using a specific helper.  If no support
for CX16 is detected by that earlier hook disable the IOMMU at that point
and prevent further poking for CX16 later in the boot process, which would
also fail.

There's a possible corner case when running virtualized, and the underlying
hypervisor exposing an IOMMU but no CMPXCHG16B support.  In which case
ignoring the IOMMU is fine, albeit the most natural would be for the
underlying hypervisor to also expose CMPXCHG16B support if an IOMMU is
available to the VM.

Note this change only introduces the checks, but doesn't remove the now
stale checks for CX16 support sprinkled in the IOMMU code.  Further changes
will take care of that.
