Subject[PATCH v2 2/2] acpi, x86: Remove encryption mask from ACPI page protection type
Date
The function arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() is used to set the page
protection type for ACPI physical addresses. When SME is active, the
associated protection type cannot have the encryption mask set since the
ACPI tables live in un-encrypted memory. Create a new protection type,
PAGE_KERNEL_NOENC, that is a no encryption version of PAGE_KERNEL, and
return that from arch_apei_get_mem_attributes().
