[PATCH v1 2/2] acpi, x86: Remove encryption mask from ACPI page protection type
From: Tom Lendacky
Date: Wed Jul 26 2017 - 14:05:01 EST
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 needs to not have the encryption mask set
since the ACPI tables live in un-encrypted memory. Modify the
arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() function to remove the encryption mask
when SME is active by returning the PAGE_KERNEL_IO protection type.
