x86/idt: Initialize early IDT before cr4_init_shadow()
Moving the early IDT setup out of assembly code breaks the boot on first generation 486 systems. The reason is that the call of idt_setup_early_handler, which sets up the early handlers was added after the call to cr4_init_shadow(). cr4_init_shadow() tries to read CR4 which is not available on those systems. The accessor function uses a extable fixup to handle the resulting fault. As the IDT is not set up yet, the cr4 read exception causes an instantaneous reboot for obvious reasons. Call idt_setup_early_handler() before cr4_init_shadow() so IDT is set up before the first exception hits.
