Could you take a look at all the places you've added these:

	if (foo() || kvm_mem_protected())
		bar();

spots and see if some refactoring is in order?

I suspect that some thought about what the high-level commonalities are,
plus some thoughtful helper function names would go a long way to making
this whole thing understandable.


set_memory_decrypted() as a name needs to go.  It almost needs to be
something like:

	set_memory_sharing()

or something.  The "sharing" would be between the kernel and devices
(for SME), or the guest kernel and host kernel for protected memory.
