Why %rsi?

sme_enable() is void so no args in registers and returns in %rax.

/me is confused.

Ditto.

I think that should say something like:

/*
* Add the memory encryption mask to init_level4_pgt's physical address
*/

or so...

So nothing in the commit message explains why we need a separate
mem_encrypt_init.c file when we already have arch/x86/mm/mem_encrypt.c
for all memory encryption code...
