Could you explain a bit why 'snp_enable_key' is needed in addition to
X86_FEATURE_SEV_SNP?

For a lot of features, we just use cpu_feature_enabled(), which does
both compile-time and static_cpu_has().  This whole series seems to lack
compile-time disables for the code that it adds, like the code it adds
to arch/x86/mm/fault.c or even mm/memory.c.
