SEV-SNP relies on the restricted/protected memory support to run guests,
so make sure to enable that support with the
CONFIG_KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM build option.

Why select KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM and not KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM?

Kconfig doesn't like this one:

I think this is because KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM requires EXPERT, which has
to be set explicitly. But I think Paolo is right that
KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM is more appropriate, which does not require
EXPERT.

I'm not sure, maybe there were previous iterations where it made sense
but KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM definitely seems more appropriate now. I've
changed it accordingly.
