>Why not instead change sev_guest_df_flush() to be SNP aware? That way callers get the right behavior without having to know if SNP is enabled or not.

It can be done, and actually both DF_FLUSH commands do exactly the same thing.

But as with other API interfaces here, I think it is better to differentiate between snp and sev API interfaces and the callers be aware of which
interface they are invoking.
