of an AMD platform like the security processor (ASP) firmware, modules etc, for example. The intent being that these updates are interim, live fixups before a proper BIOS update can be attempted - Add guest support for AMD's Secure AVIC feature which gives encrypted guests the needed protection against a malicious hypervisor generating unexpected interrupts and injecting them into such guest, thus interfering with its operation in an unexpected and negative manner. The advantage of this scheme is that the guest determines which interrupts and when to accept them vs leaving that to the benevolence (or not) of the hypervisor - Strictly separate the startup code from the rest of the kernel where former is executed from the initial 1:1 mapping of memory. The problem was that the toolchain-generated version of the code was being executed from a different mapping of memory than what was "assumed" during code generation, needing an ever-growing pile of fixups for absolute memory references which are invalid in the early, 1:1 memory mapping during boot. The major advantage of this is that there's no need to check the 1:1 mapping portion of the code for absolute relocations anymore and get rid of the RIP_REL_REF() macro sprinkling all over the place.
