Kernel code that is critical should already be covered by the noinstr
annotation. Data that is used from noinstr should ideally be placed in
noinstr data sections, but that is currently still a TODO.

This is all required for correct functioning of the entry code on
native, but seems to nicely line up with the TDX requirements.

The thing we'll not accept is making #VE an IST.
