[PATCH v4 6/9] x86/sev: Use AP Jump Table blob to stop CPU

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel at suse.de>

To support kexec under SEV-ES the APs can't be parked with HLT. Upon
wakeup the AP needs to find its way to execute at the reset vector set
by the new kernel and in real-mode.

This is what the AP jump table blob provides, so stop the APs the
SEV-ES way by calling the AP-reset-hold VMGEXIT from the AP jump
table.
