Why is that a good thing?

I guess with UPM you're supposed to get the PFN of that encrypted guest
payload from that memslot.

IOW, such commit messages are too laconic for my taste and you could try
to explain more why this is happening instead of me having to
"reverse-deduce" what you're doing from the code...
