[PATCH v5 21/32] x86, realmode: Decrypt trampoline area if memory encryption is active

When Secure Memory Encryption is enabled, the trampoline area must not
be encrypted. A CPU running in real mode will not be able to decrypt
memory that has been encrypted because it will not be able to use addresses
with the memory encryption mask.
