The call to cc_platform_has() triggers a fault and system crash if call depth
tracking is active because the GS segment has been reset by load_segments() and
GS_BASE is now 0 but call depth tracking uses per-CPU variables to operate.

Call cc_platform_has() earlier in the function when GS is still valid.

Minor nit below, otherwise:

Does it need a Fixes: tag for call depth tracking (before the change to cc_platform_has() it was a call to sme_active())?

Looks like spaces used here instead of tabs.

Thanks,
