x86/cacheinfo: Standardize _cpuid4_info_regs instance naming
The cacheinfo code frequently uses the output registers from CPUID leaf
0x4. Such registers are cached in 'struct _cpuid4_info_regs', augmented
with related information, and are then passed across functions.
The naming of these _cpuid4_info_regs instances is confusing at best.
Some instances are called "this_leaf", which is vague as "this" lacks
context and "leaf" is overly generic given that other CPUID leaves are
also processed within cacheinfo. Other _cpuid4_info_regs instances are
just called "base", adding further ambiguity.
Standardize on id4 for all instances.
