Also, that function can just as well live in compressed/sev.c and
you can export add_identity_map() instead.
That latter function calls kernel_ident_mapping_init() which is
already exported. add_identity_map() doesn't do anything special
and it is limited to the decompressor kernel so nothing stands in
the way of exporting it in a pre-patch and renaming it there to
kernel_add_identity_map() or so...
Thx.
