x86/speculation: Fix redundant MDS mitigation message

commit cd5a2aa89e847bdda7b62029d94e95488d73f6b2 upstream.

Since MDS and TAA mitigations are inter-related for processors that are
affected by both vulnerabilities, the followiing confusing messages can
be printed in the kernel log:

  MDS: Vulnerable
  MDS: Mitigation: Clear CPU buffers

To avoid the first incorrect message, defer the printing of MDS
mitigation after the TAA mitigation selection has been done. However,
that has the side effect of printing TAA mitigation first before MDS
mitigation.

 [ bp: Check box is affected/mitigations are disabled first before
   printing and massage. ]
