[svsm-devel] [PATCH v4 09/15] x86/sev: Provide guest VMPL level to userspace

Requesting an attestation report from userspace involves providing the
VMPL level for the report. Currently any value from 0-3 is valid because
Linux enforces running at VMPL0.

When an SVSM is present, though, Linux will not be running at VMPL0 and
only VMPL values starting at the VMPL level Linux is running at to 3 are
valid. In order to allow userspace to determine the minimum VMPL value
that can be supplied to an attestation report, create a sysfs entry that
can be used to retrieve the current VMPL level of Linux.
