Do not wrap before the function name.  Linus has a nice explanation/rant on this[*].
Note to self, add a Vim macro for this...

prefer s/encrypt/private, and s/encrypted_phy_pages/private_phy_pages.  pKVM
doesn't rely on encryption, and it's not impossible that x86 will someday gain
similar functionality.  And "encrypted" is also technically wrong for SEV and TDX,
as shared memory can also be encrypted with a common key.

enc_by_default yields a bizarre API.  The behavior depends on whether or not the
VM is protected, and whether or not the VM wants to protect memory by default.

For simplicity, IMO vm_phy_pages_alloc() should allocate memory as private if the
VM supports protected memory, i.e. just have vm->protected or whatever and use
that here.

Bad wrap.

This seems rather silly, why not TEST_ASSERT()?

Same here, TEST_ASSERT() seems more appropriate.

Actually, I can't envision a use outside of SEV.  AFAIK, no other architecture
does the whole "launch update" thing.  I.e. just open code this in sev_encrypt().
The more generic API that will be useful for other VM types will be to query if a
specific GPA is private vs. shared.
