Thomas Hellstrom af4eaf1097 drm/vmwgfx: Don't use the HB port if memory encryption is active
With memory encryption active, the hypervisor typically can't read the
guest memory using the HB port, since it is encrypted using a key known
only to the guest. In that case fall back to processing 4 bytes at a time
using the ordinary backdoor port.
The other option would be to use unencrypted bounce buffers for the
hypervisor to read out from or write into, but given the limited message
sizes it appears more efficient to just fall back to the ordinary backdoor
port.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
