This is all kinds of wrong.  encrypt_region() should never fail.  And by allowing
it to fail, any unexpected failure becomes harder to debug.  It's also a lie,
because sev_register_encrypted_memory() isn't allowed to fail, and I would bet
that most readers would expect _that_ call to fail given the name.

The granularity is also poor, and the complete lack of idempotency is going to
be problematic.  E.g. only the first region is actually tested, and if someone
tries to do negative testing on multiple regions, sev_register_encrypted_memory()
will fail due to trying to re-encrypt a region.

__sev_vm_launch_update() has similar issues.  encrypt_region() is allowed to
fail, but its call to KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA is not.

And peeking ahead, passing an @assert parameter to __test_snp_launch_start() (or
any helper) is a non-starter.  Readers should not have to dive into a helper's
implementation to understand that this

  __test_snp_launch_start(type, policy, 0, true);

is a happy path and this

  ret = __test_snp_launch_start(type, policy, BIT(i), false);

is a sad path.

And re-creating the VM every time is absurdly wasteful.  While performance isn't
a priority for selftests, there's no reason to make everything as slow as possible.

Even just passing the page type to encrypt_region() is confusing.  When the test
is actually going to run the guest, applying ZERO and CPUID types to _all_ pages
is completely nonsensical.

In general, I think trying to reuse the happy path's infrastructure is going to
do more harm than good.  This is what I was trying to get at in my feedback for
the previous version.

For negative tests, I would honestly say development them "from scratch", i.e.
deliberately don't reuse the existing SEV-MEM/ES infrastructure.  It'll require
more copy+paste to get rolling, but I suspect that the end result will be less
churn and far easier to read.
