Joerg Roedel c9f09539e1 x86/head/64: Check SEV encryption before switching to kernel page-table
When SEV is enabled, the kernel requests the C-bit position again from
the hypervisor to build its own page-table. Since the hypervisor is an
untrusted source, the C-bit position needs to be verified before the
kernel page-table is used.

Call sev_verify_cbit() before writing the CR3.

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.
