Yeah, I should have made mention of that in the commit message.

The restore is not performed for an SEV-ES guest (see FreeResetVector()),
because the memory is still needed.

This is the current behavior for SEV-ES. The wakeup buffer memory is
marked as reserved, at least in the DXE phase.

I'm ok with delaying this if you want.
