    x86/mm, kexec: Allow kexec to be used with SME · bba4ed01

    Provide support so that kexec can be used to boot a kernel when SME is
    enabled.
    
    Support is needed to allocate pages for kexec without encryption.  This
    is needed in order to be able to reboot in the kernel in the same manner
    as originally booted.
    
    Additionally, when shutting down all of the CPUs we need to be sure to
    flush the caches and then halt. This is needed when booting from a state
    where SME was not active into a state where SME is active (or vice-versa).
    Without these steps, it is possible for cache lines to exist for the same
    physical location but tagged both with and without the encryption bit. This
    can cause random memory corruption when caches are flushed depending on
    which cacheline is written last.
