x86/virt: Force GIF=1 prior to disabling SVM (for reboot flows)
Set GIF=1 prior to disabling SVM to ensure that INIT is recognized if the kernel is disabling SVM in an emergency, e.g. if the kernel is about to jump into a crash kernel or may reboot without doing a full CPU RESET. If GIF is left cleared, the new kernel (or firmware) will be unabled to awaken APs. Eat faults on STGI (due to EFER.SVME=0) as it's possible that SVM could be disabled via NMI shootdown between reading EFER.SVME and executing STGI.
