x86/levelling: Restrict non-architectural OSXSAVE handling to emulated CPUID

There is no need to extend the workaround to the faulted CPUID view, as
Linux's dependence on the workaround is stricly via the emulated view.

This causes a guest kernel faulted CPUID to observe architectural behaviour
with respect to its CR4.OSXSAVE setting.
