x86/sev: Avoid global variable to store virtual address of SVSM area
The boottime SVSM calling area is used both by the startup code running from a 1:1 mapping, and potentially later on running from the ordinary kernel mapping. This SVSM calling area is statically allocated, and so its physical address doesn't change. However, its virtual address depends on the calling context (1:1 mapping or kernel virtual mapping), and even though the variable that holds the virtual address of this calling area gets updated from 1:1 address to kernel address during the boot, it is hard to reason about why this is guaranteed to be safe. So instead, take the RIP-relative address of the boottime SVSM calling area whenever its virtual address is required, and only use a global variable for the physical address.
