Yeah, I kind of messed up that description a bit!

Yup, makes sense. I'll redo this.

Yup, will do.

Should I move this functionality into the sme_set_mem_* functions or
remove the sme_set_mem_* functions and use the set_memory_* functions
directly. The latter means calculating the number of pages, but makes
it clear that this works on a page level while the former keeps
everything the mem_encrypt.c file (and I can change that to take in a
page count so that it is clear about the page boundary usage).

Thanks,
Tom
