The current cpuid example can write to an invalid register based on register allocation.
Also, the comments and surrounding documentation imply a previous version of the code that did not use an array.

The example was reworked to use rdi to store the array's pointer.
The documentation was updated to reflect the array version of the cpuid code.
The paragraph explaining using reserved registers was split and information saying that general register classes do not work well with reserved registers was added.

Fixes #1540
