x86/sev: Unroll string mmio with CC_ATTR_GUEST_UNROLL_STRING_IO
The io-specific memcpy/memset functions use string mmio accesses to do
their work. Under SEV, the hypervisor can't emulate these instructions
because they read/write directly from/to encrypted memory.
KVM will inject a page fault exception into the guest when it is asked
to emulate string mmio instructions for an SEV guest:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc90000065068
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode

As string mmio for an SEV guest can not be supported by the
hypervisor, unroll the instructions for CC_ATTR_GUEST_UNROLL_STRING_IO
enabled kernels.
This issue appears when kernels are launched in recent libvirt-managed
SEV virtual machines, because virt-install started to add a tpm-crb
device to the guest by default and proactively because, raisins:
virt-manager/virt-manager@eb58c09
and as that commit says, the default adding of a TPM can be disabled
with "virt-install ... --tpm none".
The kernel driver for tpm-crb uses memcpy_to/from_io() functions to
access MMIO memory, resulting in a page-fault injected by KVM and
crashing the kernel at boot.
