The previous kernel (linux-image-5.4.0-91-generic) boots correctly with SEV.
Bisection of the kernels b/w 5.4.0-91 and 5.4.0-92 identified the
following commit as the source of regresssion :
# git bisect good
Bisecting: 0 revisions left to test after this (roughly 1 step)
[5f79bc17fd8d078378a9f3c8773ebcb506cb6f40] Revert "UBUNTU: SAUCE: (lockdown)
Make get_cert_list() not complain about cert lists that aren't present."
Since the panic happens in very early stages of boot, no trace of the
panic is present in the log files and apparently it is not possible to
collect a kernel crash dump, the crashkernel has not been enabled yet.
