There is nothing SEV-ES specific about this function, it only wraps
rdmsr/wrmsr, which are supposed to generate #VC exceptions on SEV-ES.
Since the same scenario can be covered by running the msr testcase
as a SEV-ES guest and observing if it crashes, does testing
rdmsr/wrmsr one more time here gain us any new information?

Also, the function gets called from main() even if
test_sev_es_activation() failed or SEV-ES was inactive.

Note: More broadly, what are you looking to test for here?
1. wrmsr/rdmsr correctness (rdmsr reads what wrmsr wrote)? or,
2. A #VC exception not causing a guest crash on SEV-ES?

If you are looking to test 1., I suggest letting it be covered by
the generic testcases for msr.

If you are looking to test 2., perhaps a better test is to trigger
all scenarios that would cause a #VC exception (eg. test_sev_es_vc_exit)
and check that a SEV-ES guest survives.

Varad
