From: Borislav Petkov <b...@suse.de> 04633df0c43d ("x86/cpu: Call verify_cpu() after having entered long mode too") added the call to verify_cpu() for sanitizing CPU configuration.
The latter uses the stack minimally and it can happen that we land in startup_64() directly from a 64-bit bootloader. Then we want to use our own, known good stack. Do that. APs don't need this as the trampoline sets up a stack for them.
