The SMP MP-table is built by UEFI and placed in memory in a decrypted
state. These tables are accessed using a mix of early_memremap(),
early_memunmap(), phys_to_virt() and virt_to_phys(). Change all accesses
to use early_memremap()/early_memunmap(). This allows for proper setting
of the encryption mask so that the data can be successfully accessed when
SME is active.

If you're going to introduce new prefixes then add:

This isn't new...  there are a number of messages issued in this file
with that prefix, so I was just following convention.  Changing the
prefix could be a follow-on patch.


#undef pr_fmt
#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt

at the beginning of the file so that they all say "mpparse:" instead.

And pls make that message more user-friendly: "Error mapping MP table"
or so.

Can do.

Thanks,
Tom
