As also reported by the test bot, sld_safe only exist if CPU_SUP_INTEL=y.

This can also be conditioned on boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_VMX), or the
static variant.  If CPU_SUP_INTEL=y, X86_FEATURE_VMX will be set if and
only if VMX is fully enabled, i.e. supported by the CPU and enabled in
MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROl.
