KVM: SEV: Use the size of the PSC header as the minimum size for PSC requests

When handling a Page State Change (PSC) #VMGEXIT use the size of the PSC
header as the minimum size for the scratch area.  Per the GHCB spec, PSC
requests do NOT provide the length, i.e. using control->exit_info_2 for the
length is completely made up behavior.  The existing code "works", e.g.
even though Linux-as-a-guest always passes '0', because KVM doesn't do
anything with the length when the request is in the GHCB's shared buffer.

Use the header as the min length.  Once the header is retrieved, KVM can
use the specified indices to compute the full size of the request.
