x86: Don't use potentially incorrect CPUID values for topology information

Intel says for CPUID leaf 0Bh:

  "Software must not use EBX[15:0] to enumerate processor
   topology of the system. This value in this field
   (EBX[15:0]) is only intended for display/diagnostic
   purposes. The actual number of logical processors
   available to BIOS/OS/Applications may be different from
   the value of EBX[15:0], depending on software and platform
   hardware configurations."

And yet, we're using them to derive the number cores in a package
and the number of siblings in a core.

Derive the number of siblings and cores from EAX instead, which is
intended for that.
