x86: probe memory block size advisement value during mm init

Systems with hotplug may provide an advisement value on what the memblock
size should be.  Probe this value when the rest of the configuration
values are considered.

The new heuristic is as follows

1) set_memory_block_size_order value if already set (cmdline param)
2) minimum block size if memory is less than large block limit
3) if no hotplug advice: Max block size if system is bare-metal,
   otherwise use end of memory alignment.
4) if hotplug advice: lesser of advice and end of memory alignment.

Convert to cpu_feature_enabled() while at it.[1]
