x86: Remove the default REP MOVSB threshold tunable value [BZ #27061]
Since we can't tell if the tunable value is set by user or not:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27069
remove the default REP MOVSB threshold tunable value so that the correct
default value will be set correctly by init_cacheinfo ().
