The page does not need to be zeroed, does it?

Ah, I see now you're using this function here for read-modify-write.
data is already pinned here, so even if you keep the function it makes
sense to push pinning out of __sev_dbg_decrypt_page and into
sev_dbg_decrypt.

Why decrypt/re-encrypt all the page instead of just the 16 byte area
around the [dst_addr, dst_addr+len) range?

Do you need copy_from_user, or can you just pin/unpin memory as for
DEBUG_DECRYPT?
