I still believe calling cc_platform_has() from __startup_64() is totally
broken as it lacks proper wrapping while accessing global variables.

Well, one of the issues on the AMD side was using boot_cpu_data too
early and the Intel side uses it too. Can you replace those checks with
is_tdx_guest() or whatever was the helper's name which would check
whether the the kernel is running as a TDX guest, and see if that helps?

There's no need in Intel check this early. Only AMD need it. Maybe just
opencode them?

Any way you can put a gzipped/bzipped copy of your vmlinux file somewhere I
can grab it from and take a look at it?

You can find broken vmlinux and bzImage here:

Let me know when I can remove it.

Looking at everything, it is all RIP relative addressing, so those
accesses should be fine. Your image has the intel_cc_platform_has()
function, does it work if you remove that call? Because I think it may be
the early call into that function which looks like it has instrumentation
that uses %gs in __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc and %gs is not setup properly
yet. And since boot_cpu_data.x86_vendor will likely be zero this early it
will match X86_VENDOR_INTEL and call into that function.
