[PATCH] x86, CPU: Call verify_cpu after having entered long mode

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

When we get loaded by a 64-bit bootloader, kernel entry point is
startup_64 in head_64.S. We don't trust any and all bootloaders for
fiddling with CPU configuration so we go ahead and massage each CPU
again into how we'd like it configured.

For that, make verify_cpu() callable in 64-bit mode too.

Requested-by: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@xxxxxxxxx>
