Erik Skultety b44f35e2cf docs: kbase: sev: Adjust the claims that virtio-blk doesn't work
Using virtio-blk with SEV on host kernels prior to 5.1 didn't work
because of SWIOTLB limitations and the way virtio has to use it over
DMA-API for SEV (see [1] for detailed info). That is no longer true, so
reword the kbase article accordingly.

For reference, these are the upstream kernel commits lifting the
virtio-blk limitation:
