Yuck, those are needlessly too long. They could be just as understandable if
they were called:
#define KVM_MEM_ENC_REG_REGION _IOR(KVMIO, 0xbb, struct kvm_enc_region)
#define KVM_MEM_ENC_UNREG_REGION _IOR(KVMIO, 0xbc, struct kvm_enc_region)
or so... I know, it'll need to change the qemu patches but it is more
compact this way, IMO, and you don't have to break the _IOR line.
Anyway, here are some cleanups ontop. For example, you don't really need
those trivial wrappers
kvm_vm_ioctl_mem_enc_register_region() and
kvm_vm_ioctl_mem_enc_unregister_region()
and can simply call the function pointers directly.
Also, you might wanna do that for kvm_vm_ioctl_mem_enc_op() too, in the
previous patch, which is just as trivial.
The rest is text streamlining.
