x86/bugs: Use the cpu_smt_possible() helper instead of open-coded code

There is a helper function to check if SMT is available. Use this helper
instead of performing the check manually.

The helper function cpu_smt_possible() does exactly the same thing as
was being done manually inside spectre_v2_user_select_mitigation().
Specifically, it returns false if CONFIG_SMP is disabled, otherwise
it checks the cpu_smt_control global variable.

This change improves code consistency and reduces duplication.

No change in functionality intended.
