Subject: [PATCH 19/70] x86/boot/compressed/64: Call set_sev_encryption_mask earlier

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@...e.de>

Call set_sev_encryption_mask() while still on the stage 1 #VC-handler,
because the stage 2 handler needs our own page-tables to be set up, to
which calling set_sev_encryption_mask() is a prerequisite.
