I meant this: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160902181447.GA25328@nazgul.tnic

Wouldn't simply clearing the SME mask work?

#define __va(x)			((void *)(((unsigned long)(x)+PAGE_OFFSET) & ~sme_me_mask))

Or are you saying, one needs the whole noodling through ioremap_cache()
because the data is already encrypted and accessing it with sme_me_mask
cleared would simply give you the encrypted garbage?
