My original point was about the confidential compute position (sigh)
that the untrusted hypverisor should not corrupt the driver.

So your statement is architecturally true, but we never check that
IDR0_ST_LVL_2LVL is set if IDR1_SIDSIZE > 2**7, and so we can get into
this situation where the hypervisor could trigger some kind of bad
behavior.

I think you should take it and let better be for the CC crowd.
