Wei Huang b677dfae5a x86/boot/compressed/64: Set EFER.LME=1 in 32-bit trampoline before returning to long mode
In some old AMD KVM implementation, guest's EFER.LME bit is cleared by KVM
when the hypervsior detects that the guest sets CR0.PG to 0. This causes
the guest OS to reboot when it tries to return from 32-bit trampoline code
because the CPU is in incorrect state: CR4.PAE=1, CR0.PG=1, CS.L=1, but
EFER.LME=0.  As a precaution, set EFER.LME=1 as part of long mode
activation procedure. This extra step won't cause any harm when Linux is
booted on a bare-metal machine.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
