x86/bugs: Only harden syscalls when needed

Syscall hardening (i.e., converting the syscall indirect branch to a
series of direct branches) may cause performance regressions in certain
scenarios.  Only use the syscall hardening when indirect branches are
considered unsafe.

Fixes: 1e3ad78334a6 ("x86/syscall: Don't force use of indirect calls for system calls")
