x86/microcode/AMD: Reload proper initrd start address
When we switch to virtual addresses and, especially after reserve_initrd()->relocate_initrd() have run, we have the updated initrd address in initrd_start. Use initrd_start then instead of the address which has been passed to us through boot params. (That still gets used when we're running the very early routines on the BSP).
