In some cases bootloaders will leave boot_params->cc_blob_address
uninitialized rather than zero'ing it out. This field is only meant to
be set by the boot/compressed kernel to pass information to the
uncompressed kernel when SEV-SNP support is enabled, so there are no
cases where the bootloader-provided values should be treated as
anything other than garbage. Otherwise, the uncompressed kernel may
attempt to access this bogus address, leading to a crash during early
boot.
Normally sanitize_boot_params() would be used to clear out such fields,
but that happens too late: sev_enable() may have already initialized it
to a valid value that should not be zero'd out. Instead, have
sev_enable() zero it out unconditionally beforehand.
Also ensure this happens for !CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT as well by also
including this handling in the sev_enable() stub function.
