Maybe the irrelevant attributes should not be added to the tree when not
in SNP.

The policy fields are also applicable to the SNP. The main difference are:

- in SEV/SEV-ES the policy is 32-bit compare to 64-bit value in SEV-SNP. However, for SEV-SNP spec uses lower 32-bit value and higher bits are marked reserved.

- the bit field meaning are different

Based on this, we can introduce a new filed 'snp-policy'.
