FWIW, I think a better generalisation for this would be allowing 
set_memory_decrypted() to return an address rather than implicitly 
operating in-place, and hide all the various hypervisor hooks behind that.
Yes, something like that would be a good idea.  As-is
set_memory_decrypted is a pretty horribly API anyway due to passing
the address as void, and taking a size parameter while it works in units
of pages.  So I'd very much welcome a major overhaul of this API.
