The first two bits of the CPUID leaf 0x8000001F EAX indicate whether
SEV or SME is supported respectively. It's better to check whether
SEV or SME is actually supported before checking the MSR_AMD64_SEV
to see whether SEV or SME is enabled.
This is both a bare-metal issue and a guest/VM issue. Since the first
generation Hygon Dhyana CPU doesn't support MSR_AMD64_SEV, reading that
MSR results in a #GP - either directly from hardware in the bare-metal
case or via the hypervisor (because the RDMSR is actually intercepted)
in the guest/VM case, resulting in a failed boot. And since this is very
early in the boot phase, rdmsrl_safe()/native_read_msr_safe() can't be
used.
So by checking the CPUID information before attempting the RDMSR, this
goes back to the behavior before the patch identified in the commit
eab696d8e8b9.
