I've renamed/repurposed snp_get_rmptable_info() to
snp_probe_rmptable_info(). It now reads the MSRs, sanity-checks them,
and stores the values into ro_after_init variables on success.

Subsequent code uses those values to initialize the RMP table mapping
instead of re-reading the MSRs.

I've moved the call-site for snp_probe_rmptable_info() to
bsp_init_amd(), which gets called right after early_init_amd(), so
should still be early enough to clear X86_FEATURE_SEV_SNP such that
AutoIBRS doesn't get disabled if SNP isn't available on the system. APs
don't call bsp_init_amd(), so that should avoid doing multiple MSR reads.

And I think Ashish has all the other review comments addressed now.

Thanks,

Mike
