I was just following the APM, which lists it as the "State Save Area for
SEV-ES."

Correct.

I guess we can call it just prot_save_area or protected_save_area or even
encrypted_save_area (no need for guest, since guest is implied, e.g. we
don't call the normal save area guest_save_area).

Yup, that can be made more generic.

Will do.
