[PATCH v5 31/32] x86: Add sysfs support for Secure Memory Encryption

Add sysfs support for SME so that user-space utilities (kdump, etc.) can
determine if SME is active.

A new directory will be created:
  /sys/kernel/mm/sme/

And two entries within the new directory:
  /sys/kernel/mm/sme/active
  /sys/kernel/mm/sme/encryption_mask
