With this code removed, it's not clear to me what forces the use of the
swiotlb in a Hyper-V isolated VM. The code in pci_swiotlb_detect_4g() doesn't
catch this case because cc_platform_has(CC_ATTR_HOST_MEM_ENCRYPT)
returns "false" in a Hyper-V guest. In the Hyper-V guest, it's only
cc_platform_has(CC_ATTR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT) that returns "true". I'm
looking more closely at the meaning of the CC_ATTR_* values, and it may
be that Hyper-V should also return "true" for CC_ATTR_MEM_ENCRYPT,
but I don't think CC_ATTR_HOST_MEM_ENCRYPT should return "true".
