The GCR3TRPMode feature allows the DTE[GCR3TRP] field to be configured
with GPA (instead of SPA). This simplifies the implementation, and is
a pre-requisite for nested translation support.

Therefore, always enable this feature if available.

This works for now as iommu_snp_enable() enable is getting called later.
But how about moving it to iommu_init_flags() ?

I put it here because the GCR3TRP feature depends on GT supported / enabled, which is checked in this function. This avoid duplicate checks.
Also we should probably add a comment here.

I will note in the comment regarding this needs to be called prior to iommu_snp_enable()

Thanks,
