Subject: [PATCH v5 08/12] x86/tdx: Add HLT support for TDX guest

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@...ux.intel.com>

Per Guest-Host-Communication Interface (GHCI) for Intel Trust
Domain Extensions (Intel TDX) specification, sec 3.8,
TDVMCALL[Instruction.HLT] provides HLT operation. Use it to implement
halt() and safe_halt() paravirtualization calls.

The same TDX hypercall is used to handle #VE exception due to
EXIT_REASON_HLT.

Changes since v4:
 * Added exception for EXIT_REASON_HLT in __tdx_hypercall() to
   enable interrupts using sti.

Changes since v3:
 * None
