BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2037316

Previously, if copy_from_kernel_nofault was called before
boot_cpu_data.x86_virt_bits was set up, then it would trigger undefined
behavior due to a shift by 64. This ended up causing boot failures in
the latest version of ubuntu2204 in the gcp project when using SEV-SNP.
Specifically, this function is called during an early #VC handler which
is triggered by a cpuid to check if nx is implemented.
