Add support to check if memory encryption is active in the kernel and that
it has been enabled on the AP. If memory encryption is active in the kernel
but has not been enabled on the AP, then set the SYS_CFG MSR bit to enable
memory encryption on that AP and allow the AP to continue start up.

Let's add some blurb here about this being a safety net in case BIOS
f*cks up. Which wouldn't be that far-fetched... :-)

That's a good idea, I'll expand on that. I probably won't be that
direct in my comment though :)

Thanks,
Tom
