Joerg Roedel 34bb49229f x86/boot/compressed/64: Switch to __KERNEL_CS after GDT is loaded
When the pre-decompression code loads its first GDT in startup_64(), it
is still running on the CS value of the previous GDT. In the case of
SEV-ES, this is the EFI GDT but it can be anything depending on what has
loaded the kernel (boot loader, container runtime, etc.)

To make exception handling work (especially IRET) the CPU needs to
switch to a CS value in the current GDT, so jump to __KERNEL_CS after
the first GDT is loaded. This is prudent also as a general sanitization
of CS to a known good value.

README

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.
