Commit
cbebd68f59f0 ("x86/mm: Fix use of uninitialized buffer in sme_enable()")
'fixed' an issue in sme_enable() detected by static analysis, and broke
the common case in the process.
cmdline_find_option() will return < 0 on an error, or when the command
line argument does not appear at all. In this particular case, the
latter is not an error condition, and so the early exit is wrong.
Instead, without mem_encrypt= on the command line, the compile time
default should be honoured, which could be to enable memory encryption,
and this is currently broken.
Fix it by setting sme_me_mask to a preliminary value based on the
compile time default, and only omitting the command line argument test
when cmdline_find_option() returns an error.
[ bp: Drop active_by_default while at it. ]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
