I really hate all this #VC stuff :-(
So the above will make the NMI do 4 unconditional extra CALL+RET, a LOAD
(which will potentially miss) and a compare and branch.
How's that a win for normal people? Can we please turn all these
sev_es_*() hooks into something like:
DECLARE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(sev_es_enabled_key);
static __always_inline void sev_es_foo()
{
if (static_branch_unlikely(&sev_es_enabled_key))
__sev_es_foo();
}
So that normal people will only see an extra NOP?

Is this comment accurate, I cannot find the patch touching
nmi_enter/exit()?

That's pretty disguisting :-(
