A negative number can be specified in the cmdline which will be used as
setup_clear_cpu_cap() argument. With that we can clear/set some bit in
memory predceeding boot_cpu_data/cpu_caps_cleared which may cause kernel
to misbehave. This patch adds lower bound check to setup_disablecpuid().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
