Subject: [PATCH v8 07/11] 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 v7:
* Added section title to spec reference in commit log and comments.
* Added extra comments as per review suggestion.
Changes since v6:
* None
Changes since v5:
* Replaced sti with STI in commit log and comments.
* Added comments for _tdx_hypercall() usage in _tdx_halt().
* Added new helper function _tdx_halt() to contain common
code between tdx_halt() and tdx_safe_halt().
* Renamed tdg_->tdx_.
* Removed BUG_ON() and used WARN_ONCE() for HLT emulation
failure.
Changes since v4:
* Added exception for EXIT_REASON_HLT in __tdx_hypercall() to
enable interrupts using sti.
Changes since v3:
* None
