[PULL 02/17] qemu-options.hx: Update the reduced-phys-bits documentation


From: Paolo Bonzini
Subject: [PULL 02/17] qemu-options.hx: Update the reduced-phys-bits documentation
Date: Sat, 29 Apr 2023 14:16:21 +0200

From: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com>

A guest only ever experiences, at most, 1 bit of reduced physical
addressing. Update the documentation to reflect this as well as change
the example value on the reduced-phys-bits option.

Fixes: a9b4942f48 ("target/i386: add Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) 
object")
