This was suggested by Dave Hansen. It gets used for the hypervisors
that get informed about "encryption" status via page tables: SEV and TDX.

Thanks for reminder. I know that patchset and suggested to decouple 
dependency among SEV, TDX and Hyper=v patchset.

Thanks for your test. Missing hv_set_register() when CONFIG_HYPERV is 
not selected. I will fix it in the next version.
