Subject: [RFT PATCH v3 04/21] x86/sev: Run RMPADJUST on SVSM calling area page
 to test VMPL

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@...nel.org>

Determining the VMPL at which the kernel runs involves performing a
RMPADJUST operation on an arbitary page of memory, and observing whether
it succeeds.

The use of boot_ghcb_page in the core kernel in this case is completely
arbitary, but results in the need to provide a PIC alias for it. So use
boot_svsm_ca_page instead, which already needs this alias for other
reasons.
