[PATCH] x86/cpu: Init exception handling from cpu_init()

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Tue May 04 2021 - 13:18:10 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

SEV-ES guests require properly setup task register with which the TSS
descriptor in the GDT can be located so that the IST-type #VC exception
handler which they need to function properly, can be executed.

This setup needs to happen before attempting to load microcode in
ucode_cpu_init() which can cause such #VC exceptions.

Simplify the machinery by running that exception setup from cpu_init()
directly.

There should be no functional changes resulting from this patch.
