acpi, x86/mm: Remove encryption mask from ACPI page protection type
The arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() function is used to set the page protection type for ACPI physical addresses. When SME is active, the associated protection type cannot have the encryption mask set since the ACPI tables live in un-encrypted memory - the kernel will see corrupted data. To fix this, create a new protection type, PAGE_KERNEL_NOENC, that is a 'no encryption' version of PAGE_KERNEL, and return that from arch_apei_get_mem_attributes().
