x86/mm: Make memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) map memory as encrypted by default
Currently memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) can produce decrypted/shared mapping: memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) arch_memremap_wb() ioremap_cache() __ioremap_caller(.encrytped = false) In such cases, the IORES_MAP_ENCRYPTED flag on the memory will determine if the resulting mapping is encrypted or decrypted. Creating a decrypted mapping without explicit request from the caller is risky: - It can inadvertently expose the guest's data and compromise the guest. - Accessing private memory via shared/decrypted mapping on TDX will either trigger implicit conversion to shared or #VE (depending on VMM implementation). Implicit conversion is destructive: subsequent access to the same memory via private mapping will trigger a hard-to-debug #VE crash. The kernel already provides a way to request decrypted mapping explicitly via the MEMREMAP_DEC flag. Modify memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) to produce encrypted/private mapping by default unless MEMREMAP_DEC is specified or if the kernel runs on a machine with SME enabled. It fixes the crash due to #VE on kexec in TDX guests if CONFIG_EISA is enabled. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
