Commit ad6c00283163 ("swiotlb: Free tbl memory in swiotlb_exit()")
introduced a set_memory_encrypted() call to swiotlb_exit() so that the
buffer pages are returned to an encrypted state prior to being freed.
Sachin reports that this leads to the following crash on a Power server:
[ 0.010799] software IO TLB: tearing down default memory pool
[ 0.010805] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 0.010808] kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/kernel/interrupt.c:98!
Nick spotted that this is because set_memory_encrypted() is issuing an
ultracall which doesn't exist for the processor, and should therefore
be gated by mem_encrypt_active() to mirror the x86 implementation.
