x86/cpu: Change type of x86_cache_size variable to unsigned int
Currently, x86_cache_size is of type int, which makes no sense as we
will never have a valid cache size equal or less than 0. So instead of
initializing this variable to -1, it can perfectly be initialized to 0
and use it as an unsigned variable instead.
