x86/cpu: Init AP exception handling from cpu_init_secondary()
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. [ tglx: Reworked it so cpu_init_exception_handling() stays seperate ] Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@linux.alibaba.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/87k0o6gtvu.ffs@nanos.tec.linutronix.de
