Hmm, now I remember why I would have liked to include the AMD SEV 
changes in 6.9 --- because they get rid of the "subtype" case in selftests.

It's not a huge deal, it's just a nicer API, and anyway I'm not going to 
ask you to rebase on top of my changes; and you couldn't have known that 
when we talked about it last Wednesday, since the patches are for the 
moment closely guarded on my hard drive.

But it may still be a good reason to sneak those as well in the second 
week of the 6.9 merge window, though I'm not going to make a fuss if you 
disagree.
