Hi Sean,

We've rebased the SEV+SNP support onto your updated UPM base support
tree and things seem to be working okay, but we needed some fixups on
top of the base support get things working, along with 1 workaround
for an issue that hasn't been root-caused yet:

  https://github.com/mdroth/linux/commits/upmv10b-host-snp-v8-wip

  *stash (upm_base_support): mm: restrictedmem: Kirill's pinning implementation
  *workaround (use_base_support): mm: restrictedmem: loosen exclusivity check
  *fixup (upm_base_support): KVM: use inclusive ranges for restrictedmem binding/unbinding
  *fixup (upm_base_support): mm: restrictedmem: use inclusive ranges for issuing invalidations
  *fixup (upm_base_support): KVM: fix restrictedmem GFN range calculations
  *fixup (upm_base_support): KVM: selftests: CoCo compilation fixes

We plan to post an updated RFC for v8 soon, but also wanted to share
the staging tree in case you end up looking at the UPM integration aspects
before then.
