Miscellaneous x86 fixes:

- Fix an early boot crash in AMD SEV-SNP guests, caused by incorrect
FSGSBASE init ordering. (Nikunj A Dadhania)

- Remove X86_CR4_FRED from the CR4 pinned bits mask, to fix a race
window during the bootup of SEV-{ES,SNP} or TDX guests, which
can crash them if they trigger exceptions in that window.
(Borislav Petkov)

- Fix early boot failures on SEV-ES/SNP guests, due to incorrect
early GHCB access. (Nikunj A Dadhania)

- Add clarifying comment to the CRn pinning logic, to avoid
future confusion & bugs. (Peter Zijlstra)

Thanks,

Ingo
