This is the implementation for the guys that don't
have ARCH_HAS_MEM_ENCRYPT.

Means sev_active() may not be used in such code after this
patch. What about 

static inline bool force_dma_unencrypted(void)
{
        return sev_active();
}

in kernel/dma/direct.c?

FYI, I have this pending in the dma-mapping tree:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping.git/commitdiff/e67a5ed1f86f4370991c601f2fcad9ebf9e1eebb

Thank you very much! I will have another look, but it seems to me,
without further measures taken, this would break protected virtualization
support on s390. The effect of the che for s390 is that
force_dma_unencrypted() will always return false instead calling into
the platform code like it did before the patch, right?

Should I send a  Fixes: e67a5ed1f86f "dma-direct: Force unencrypted DMA
under SME for certain DMA masks" (Tom Lendacky, 2019-07-10) patch that
rectifies things for s390 or how do we want handle this?
