When SEV-SNP is enabled globally, a write from the host goes through the
globally?

Can SNP be even enabled any other way?

I see the APM talks about it being enabled globally, I guess this means
the RMP represents *all* system memory?

Magic numbers.

Pls do instead:

enum rmp_pf_ret {
	RMP_PF_SPLIT	= 0,
	RMP_PF_RETRY	= 1,
};

and use those instead.

You need to elaborate more here: a RMP fault can happen and then the

Oh boy, this is unnecessarily complicated. Isn't this

	pfn |= pud_index(address);

or
	pfn |= pmd_index(address);

depending on the level?

I think it is but it needs more explaining.

In any case, those are two static masks exactly and they don't need to
be computed for each #PF.

Yah, this looks weird: generic code implies that page splitting after a
#PF makes sense only when SEV is present and none otherwise.

Why?
