This VMGEXIT is optional and is available only when the SNP feature is
advertised through HV_FEATURE VMGEXIT. The GHCB specification spells it
with the "SNP" prefix" to distinguish it from others. The other
"VMGEXIT's" defined in this file are available for both the SNP and ES
guests, so we don't need any prefixes.
Sure but are there any other VMGEXIT guest requests besides those two?
If not, then they're unique so we can just as well drop the SNP prefix.
Bottom line is, I'd like the code to be short and readable at a glance.
There are total 7 SNP specific VMGEXIT. I can drop the "SNP" prefix if
that is preferred.

Thx.
