In commit fbf6449f84bf ("x86/sev-es: Set x86_virt_bits to the correct
value straight away, instead of a two-phase approach"), the initialization
of c->x86_phys_bits was moved after this_cpu->c_early_init(c). This is
incorrect because early_init_amd() expected to be able to reduce the
value according to the contents of CPUID leaf 0x8000001f.
Fortunately, the bug was negated by init_amd()'s call to early_init_amd(),
which does reduce x86_phys_bits in the end. However, this is very
late in the boot process and, most notably, the wrong value is used for
x86_phys_bits when setting up MTRRs.
To fix this, call get_cpu_address_sizes() as soon as X86_FEATURE_CPUID is
set/cleared, and c->extended_cpuid_level is retrieved.
Fixes: fbf6449f84bf ("x86/sev-es: Set x86_virt_bits to the correct value straight away, instead of a two-phase approach")
