'r11' needs a real, logical name.

This statement is, um, a wee bit ugly.

First, it's not obvious at all why the address masking is necessary.

Second, it's utterly insane to do that mask to 'r11' twice. Third, it's
silly do logically the same thing to start and end every time through
the loop.

This also seems to have built in the idea that cc_mkdec() *SETS* bits
rather than clearing them. That's true for TDX today, but it's a
horrible chunk of code to leave around because it'll confuse actual
legitimate cc_enc/dec() users.

The more I write about it, the more I dislike it.

Why can't this just be:

if ((map_fail_paddr < start) ||
(map_fail_paddr >= end))
return false;

If the hypervisor returns some crazy address in r11 that isn't masked
like the inputs, just fail.

Why is only one side of this necessary? Shouldn't it need to be
something like:

if (enc)
start = cc_mkenc(start);
else
start = cc_mkdec(start);
