What?!

"15.36.5 Hypervisor RMP Management

...

Because the RMP is initialized by the AMD-SP to prevent direct access to
the RMP, the hypervisor must use the RMPUPDATE instruction to alter the
entries of the RMP. RMPUPDATE allows the hypervisor to alter the
Guest_Physical_Address, Assigned, Page_Size, Immutable, and ASID fields
of an RMP entry."

What you want is something that you should keep far and away from the
upstream kernel.
