KVM: x86/mmu: Do not apply HPA (memory encryption) mask to GPAs
Ignore "dynamic" host adjustments to the physical address mask when generating the masks for guest PTEs, i.e. the guest PA masks. The host physical address space and guest physical address space are two different beasts, e.g. even though SEV's C-bit is the same bit location for both host and guest, disabling SME in the host (which clears shadow_me_mask) does not affect the guest PTE->GPA "translation". For non-SEV guests, not dropping bits is the correct behavior. Assuming KVM and userspace correctly enumerate/configure guest MAXPHYADDR, bits that are lost as collateral damage from memory encryption are treated as reserved bits, i.e. KVM will never get to the point where it attempts to generate a gfn using the affected bits. And if userspace wants to create a bogus vCPU, then userspace gets to deal with the fallout of hardware doing odd things with bad GPAs. For SEV guests, not dropping the C-bit is technically wrong, but it's a moot point because KVM can't read SEV guest's page tables in any case since they're always encrypted. Not to mention that the current KVM code is also broken since sme_me_mask does not have to be non-zero for SEV to be supported by KVM. The proper fix would be to teach all of KVM to correctly handle guest private memory, but that's a task for the future.
