When there are two racing NMIs on x86, the first NMI invokes NMI handler and
the 2nd NMI is latched until IRET is executed.
If panic on NMI and panic kexec are enabled, the first NMI triggers
panic and starts booting the next kernel via kexec. Note that the 2nd
NMI is still latched. During the early boot of the next kernel, once
an IRET is executed as a result of a page fault, then the 2nd NMI is
unlatched and invokes the NMI handler.
However, NMI handler is not set up at the early stage of boot, which
results in a boot failure.
Avoid such problems by setting up a NOP handler for early NMIs.

Install an exception handler for #VC exception that uses a GHCB. Also
add the infrastructure for handling different exit-codes by decoding
the instruction that caused the exception and error handling.

Add the first handler for #VC exceptions. At stage 1 there is no GHCB
yet because the kernel might still be running on the EFI page table.
The stage 1 handler is limited to the MSR-based protocol to talk to the
hypervisor and can only support CPUID exit-codes, but that is enough to
get to stage 2.

Install a page-fault handler to add an identity mapping to addresses
not yet mapped. Also do some checking whether the error code is sane.
This makes non SEV-ES machines use the exception handling
infrastructure in the pre-decompressions boot code too, making it less
likely to break in the future.

Add code needed to setup an IDT in the early pre-decompression
boot-code. The IDT is loaded first in startup_64, which is after
EfiExitBootServices() has been called, and later reloaded when the
kernel image has been relocated to the end of the decompression area.
This allows to setup different IDT handlers before and after the
relocation.
