[ Upstream commit f79936545fb122856bd78b189d3c7ee59928c751 ]
Previously, if copy_from_kernel_nofault() was called before
boot_cpu_data.x86_virt_bits was set up, then it would trigger undefined
behavior due to a shift by 64.
This ended up causing boot failures in the latest version of ubuntu2204
in the gcp project when using SEV-SNP.
Specifically, this function is called during an early #VC handler which
is triggered by a CPUID to check if NX is implemented.
Fixes: 1aa9aa8ee5 ("x86/sev-es: Setup GHCB-based boot #VC handler")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
