Subject: [PATCH 23/62] x86/idt: Move IDT to data segment
Date:   Tue, 11 Feb 2020 14:52:17 +0100

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de>

With SEV-ES, exception handling is needed very early, even before the
kernel has cleared the bss segment. In order to prevent clearing the
currently used IDT, move the IDT to the data segment.
