     *        start executing instructions in a potentially-secure
     *        guest
     *
     * The definition here is a bit fuzzy, because this is essentially
     * part of a self-sanity-check, rather than a strict mechanism.
     *
     * It's not feasible to have a single point in the common machine
     * init path to configure confidential guest support, because
     * different mechanisms have different interdependencies requiring
     * initialization in different places, often in arch or machine
     * type specific code.  It's also usually not possible to check
     * for invalid configurations until that initialization code.
     * That means it would be very easy to have a bug allowing CGS
     * init to be bypassed entirely in certain configurations.
     *
     * Silently ignoring a requested security feature would be bad, so
     * to avoid that we check late in init that this 'ready' flag is
     * set if CGS was requested.  If the CGS init hasn't happened, and
     * so 'ready' is not set, we'll abort.
