Nothing needs to be measured, no? (because there's no attestation)

Please no, doing a memslot lookup in a helper like this is only going to encourage
proliferation of bad code. vm_mem_add() really should be able to mark the region
as protected.

E.g. practically speaking, the only code that will be able to use this helper is
code that is marking the entire memslot as protection. And ability to _clear_
the protected_phy_pages bit is conspicuously missing.
