Static inline alongside the other cpuid helpers please. This assembles
to smaller than the call required to get to a separate translation unit.

This is interim code. Personally, I'm still go with what I said at the
very beginning, of opencoding it just in the hunk below.

By the time we are running in C, we know the CPU actually has long mode
and therefore max_leaf > 4(?) and max_extd_leaf >= 0x80000008
I don't see any value in not relying on this property, and a cost (extra
branches) to not relying on it.
