It seems wrong to be modifying __va(). It currently takes a physical
address, and this modifies it to take a physical address plus the SME bits.
How does that end up ever happening? If we are pulling physical
addresses out of the page tables, we use p??_phys(). I'd expect *those*
to be masking off the SME bits.
Is it these cases?
pgd_t *base = __va(read_cr3());
For those, it seems like we really want to create two modes of reading
cr3. One that truly reads CR3 and another that reads the pgd's physical
address out of CR3. Then you only do the SME masking on the one
fetching a physical address, and the SME bits never leak into __va().
