You can do here:

static inline enum es_result
__sev_es_ghcb_hv_call(struct ghcb *ghcb, u64 exit_code, u64 exit_info_1, u64 exit_info_2) { return ES_VMM_ERROR; }

Well, why does Hyper-V need this thing a bit differently, without the
setting of the GHCB's physical address?

What if another hypervisor does yet another SEV implementation and yet
another HV call needs to be defined?

If stuff is going to be exported to other users, then stuff better be
defined properly so that it is used by multiple hypervisors.
