This function is called after alloc_pages() which already zeroes memory
when __GFP_ZERO is supplied.

If you need to clear the memory *after* set_memory_encrypted() happens,
then you should probably mask out __GFP_ZERO before the alloc_pages()
call so as not to do it twice.

No need for that native_wbinvd_halt() thing:

	for (;;) {
		if (do_wbinvd)
			wbinvd();

		halt();
	}

You're already supplying a x86_mapping_info and thus you can init
kernpg_flag to default _KERNPG_TABLE and override it in the SME+kexec
case, as you already do. And this way you can simply do:

	set_pud(pud, __pud(__pa(pmd) | info->kernpg_flag));

here and in the other pagetable functions I've snipped below, and save
yourself some lines.
