Uuuh, this needs a BIG FAT COMMENT.

You're running on SNP and yet the enc/dec meaning is flipped. And that's
because of vTOM.

What happens if you have other types of SNP-based VMs on HyperV? The
isolation VMs thing? Or is that the same?

What happens when you do TDX guests with HyperV?

This becomes wrong then.

I think you need a more finer-grained check here in the sense of "is it
a HyperV guest using a paravisor and vTOM is enabled" or so.

Otherwise, I like the removal of the HyperV-specific checks ofc.

Thx.
