[ Upstream commitb1efd0ff4b] SEV-ES guests require properly setup task register with which the TSS descriptor in the GDT can be located so that the IST-type #VC exception handler which they need to function properly, can be executed. This setup needs to happen before attempting to load microcode in ucode_cpu_init() on secondary CPUs which can cause such #VC exceptions. Simplify the machinery by running that exception setup from a new function cpu_init_secondary() and explicitly call cpu_init_exception_handling() for the boot CPU before cpu_init(). The latter prepares for fixing and simplifying the exception/IST setup on the boot CPU. There should be no functional changes resulting from this patch.

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.
