Yap,

here's v2, now tested. It seems we do need that optional_stack_size
second arg to ESTACKS_MEMBERS(), thx Tom.

The size of the exception stacks was increased by the commit in Fixes,
resulting in stack sizes greater than a page in size. The #VC exception
handling was only mapping the first (bottom) page, resulting in an
SEV-ES guest failing to boot.

Make the #VC exception stacks part of the default exception stacks
storage and allocate them with a CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y .config. Map
them only when a SEV-ES guest has been detected.

Rip out the custom VC stacks mapping and storage code.
