So how is moving the CC_ATTR_GUEST_SEV_SNP check here make any sense?
In the comment that you gave here[1], I understood that this check has 
to be pushed to snp_secure_tsc_prepare().

I simply zapped the MSR_AMD64_SEV_SNP_ENABLED check above locally.
For SEV and SEV-ES this SecureTSC bit should not be set, I think we should be 
fine without MSR_AMD64_SEV_SNP_ENABLED check.
