This change is causing the SNP guest to fail ...

snp_check_hv_features()
-> get_hv_features() fails as ghcb_version is not yet initalized
ghcb_version is initialized as part of sev_es_negotiate_protocol(),
atleast this function needs to be called before get_hv_features() is
called.

With the below change, SNP-guest boots fine. I will wait for Tom's
confirmation if this is enough.
