So I was wondering what this is changing because if the change you do is
relevant, you'd have to undo it.
But looking at RMPADJUST, TARGET_PERM_MASK is 0 for target VMPL1 so
you're basically clearing all permissions for boot_ghcb_page on VMPL1.
Which is fine currently as we do only VMPL0 but pls write that out
explicitly what you're doing here and why it is ok to use RMPADJUST
without having to restore any changes it has done to the RMP table.

"VMPL0" - no hyphen - like in the APM. Below too.
