If this is a standard SNP guest then you can detect vTOM support using
SEV_FEATURES. See this thread here:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221117044433.244656-1-nikunj@amd.com
Which then means, you don't need any special gunk except extending this
patch above to check SNP has vTOM support.

And all those should JustWork(tm) because we already support such guests.

Yah, see above.
Thx.
