We discovered that the kdump crashkernel would not work with our SEV-
SNP configuration.

After reading the device table from the previour kernel we would
see a lot of
   AMD-Vi: Completion-Wait loop timed out
errors and finally crash:
   Kernel panic - not syncing: timer doesn't work through Interrupt-
remapped IO-APIC

We found that disabeling SNP in the outgoing (crashing) kernel
would enable the crashkernel to take over the iommu config and
boot from there.

We opened a PR over on github against the rfc-v9 branch to discuss
the issue:
