Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 13/18] KVM: x86: Introduce new KVM_FEATURE_SEV_LIVE_MIGRATION feature & Custom MSR.

An immediate response, actually the SEV live migration patches are preferred over the Page encryption bitmap
patches, in other words, if SEV live migration patches are applied then we don't need the Page encryption bitmap
patches and we prefer the live migration series to be applied.

It is not that page encryption bitmap series supersede the live migration patches, they are just cut of the
live migration patches. 

Thanks,
Ashish
