The use of ioremap will force the setup data to be mapped decrypted even
though setup data is encrypted.  Switch to using memremap which will be
able to perform the proper mapping.

How should callers decide whether to use ioremap() or memremap()?

memremap() existed before SME and SEV, and this code is used even if
SME and SEV aren't supported, so the rationale for this change should
not need the decryption argument.

When SME or SEV is active an ioremap() will remove the encryption bit
from the pagetable entry when it is mapped.  This allows MMIO, which
doesn't support SME/SEV, to be performed successfully.  So my take is
that ioremap() should be used for MMIO and memremap() for pages in RAM.

I can't quite connect the dots here.  ioremap() on x86 would do
ioremap_nocache().  memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) would do arch_memremap_wb(),
which is ioremap_cache().  Is making a cacheable mapping the important
difference?

The memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) will actually check to see if it can perform
a __va(pa_data) in try_ram_remap() and then fallback to the
arch_memremap_wb().  So it's actually the __va() vs the ioremap_cache()
that is the difference.

Thanks,
Tom
