x86/cpu: Use enums for TLB descriptor types



The leaf 0x2 one-byte TLB descriptor types:

	TLB_INST_4K
	TLB_INST_4M
	TLB_INST_2M_4M
	...

are just discriminators to be used within the intel_tlb_table[] mapping.
Their specific values are irrelevant.

Use enums for such types.

Make the enum packed and static assert that its values remain within a
single byte so that the intel_tlb_table[] size do not go out of hand.

Use a __CHECKER__ guard for the static_assert(sizeof(enum) == 1) line as
sparse ignores the __packed annotation on enums.

This is similar to:

  fe3944fb ("fs: Move enum rw_hint into a new header file")

for the core SCSI code.
