x86/asm: Get rid of __read_cr4_safe()
We use __read_cr4() vs __read_cr4_safe() inconsistently. On CR4-less CPUs, all CR4 bits are effectively clear, so we can make the code simpler and more robust by making __read_cr4() always fix up faults on 32-bit kernels. This may fix some bugs on old 486-like CPUs, but I don't have any easy way to test that.
