Looking at everything, it is all RIP relative addressing, so those
accesses should be fine. Your image has the intel_cc_platform_has()
function, does it work if you remove that call? Because I think it may be
the early call into that function which looks like it has instrumentation
that uses %gs in __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc and %gs is not setup properly
yet. And since boot_cpu_data.x86_vendor will likely be zero this early it
will match X86_VENDOR_INTEL and call into that function.
