x86: fdiv bug detection fix
The fdiv detection code writes s32 integer into the boot_cpu_data.fdiv_bug. However, the boot_cpu_data.fdiv_bug is only char (s8) field so the detection overwrites already set fields for other bugs, e.g. the f00f bug field. Use local s32 variable to receive result. This is a partial fix to Bugzilla #9928 - fixes wrong information about the f00f bug (tested) and probably for coma bug (I have no cpu to test this).
