No problem, I don't have a strong preference.  I initially added stubs instead of
the IS_ENABLED().  The main reason I switched is when I realized that sev_set_cpu_caps()
*cleared* capabilities, and so decided it would be safer to have a separate patch
that effectively stubbed out the global SEV calls.
