x86/cpu: Remove the CONFIG_X86_PPRO_FENCE=y quirk
There were only a few Pentium Pro multiprocessors systems where this errata applied. They are more than 20 years old now, and we've slowly dropped places which put the workarounds in and discouraged anyone from enabling the workaround. Get rid of it for good.

- ---help---
- Old PentiumPro multiprocessor systems had errata that could cause
- memory operations to violate the x86 ordering standard in rare cases.
- Enabling this option will attempt to work around some (but not all)
- occurrences of this problem, at the cost of much heavier spinlock and
- memory barrier operations.

- If unsure, say n here. Even distro kernels should think twice before
- enabling this: there are few systems, and an unlikely bug.
