Even better.

Only if you clean it up and get rid of the inverted logic and drop that
silly switch-case.

I don't understand - the AMD-specific function amd_protected_guest_has()
would return sme_me_mask just like mem_encrypt_active() does and we can
get rid of latter.

Or do you have a problem with the name protected_guest_has() containing
"guest" while we're talking about SME here?

If so, feel free to suggest a better one - the name does not have to
have "guest" in it.

Thx.
