[patch] x86/smpboot: Disable parallel bootup if cc_vendor != NONE

The decision to allow parallel bringup of secondary CPUs checks
CC_ATTR_GUEST_STATE_ENCRYPT to detect encrypted guests. Those cannot use
parallel bootup because accessing the local APIC is intercepted and raises
a #VC or #VE, which cannot be handled at that point.

The check works correctly, but only for AMD encrypted guests. TDX does not
set that flag.

Check for cc_vendor != CC_VENDOR_NONE instead. That might be overbroad, but
definitely works for both AMD and Intel.
