Hi,

v1: 
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20260122164943.20691-1-alejandro.garciavallejo@xxxxxxx/
v2: 
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20260205170923.38425-1-alejandro.garciavallejo@xxxxxxx/
pipeline (green): 
https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/agvallejo/xen/-/pipelines/2324131649

This time the policy check uses e{b,c,d}x rather than x86_vendor and there's
2 unit tests for it.

Cheers,
Alejandro
