You convert this call site with swiotlb_init_io_tlb_mem() which did not
do the set_memory_decrypted()+memset(). Is this okay or should
swiotlb_init_io_tlb_mem() add an additional argument to do this
conditionally?

The zeroing is useful and was missing before.  I think having a clean
state here is the right thing.

Not sure about the set_memory_decrypted, swiotlb_update_mem_attributes
kinda suggests it is too early to set the memory decrupted.

Adding Tom who should now about all this.

The reason for adding swiotlb_update_mem_attributes() was because having
the call to set_memory_decrypted() in swiotlb_init_with_tbl() triggered a
BUG_ON() related to interrupts not being enabled yet during boot. So that
call had to be delayed until interrupts were enabled.

Thanks,
Tom
