Ugh, and selftests also need to handle the scenario where SEV is enabled, but all
ASIDs are assigned to SEV-ES.  We could try to create a dummy VM and check for an
-EBUSY return, but that is ugly and could result in missing KVM bugs due to tests
being skipped instead of failing.

That's a future problem though, because I think we'll need new KVM functionality
to surface that information.
