KVM: SEV: Use long-term pin when registering encrypted memory regions

Browse source

When registering an encrypted memory region for SEV-MEM/SEV-ES guests,
pin the pages with FOLL_TERM so that the pages are migrated out of
MIGRATE_CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE.  Failure to do so violates the CMA/MOVABLE
mechanisms and can result in fragmentation due to unmovable pages, e.g.
can make CMA allocations fail.
