PATCH 1/1 x86: Fix show_msr= debug print out

Found show_msr=n is broken when try to ask user to get debug info about broken mtrr. (setting are different between cpus)

Originally we call print_cpu_msr from print_cpu_info(), but

|    x86: Limit the number of processor bootup messages

just remove whole print_cpu_info calling for all APs. So show_msr=n stop working now.

Try to put back calling of print_cpu_msr, and it will only print msr when user specify show_msr=n

-v2: Fix one typo found by Ingo.
-v3: fix missing print out for cpu0

x86/debug: Fix/improve the show_msr=<cpus> debug print out

Found out that show_msr=<cpus> is broken, when I asked a user to use it to capture debug info about broken MTRR's whose MTRR settings are probably different between CPUs.

Only the first CPUs MSRs are printed, but that is not enough to track down the suspected bug.

For years we called print_cpu_msr from print_cpu_info(), but this commit:

|    x86: Limit the number of processor bootup messages

removed the print_cpu_info() call from all APs.

Put it back - it will only print MSRs when the user specifically requests them via show_msr=<cpus>.
