x86, msr: Remove incorrect, duplicated code in the MSR driver

The MSR driver would compute the values for cpu and c at declaration,
and then again in the body of the function.  This isn't merely
redundant, but unsafe, since cpu might not refer to a valid CPU at
that point.

Remove the unnecessary and dangerous references in the declarations.
This code now matches the equivalent code in the CPUID driver.
