Re: [PATCH v7 09/45] x86/sev: Save the negotiated GHCB version

Hi Brijesh:
We find this patch breaks AMD SEV support in the Hyper-V Isolation
VM. Hyper-V code also uses sev_es_ghcb_hv_call() to read or write msr
value. The sev_es_check_cpu_features() isn't called in the Hyper-V code
and so the ghcb_version is always 0. Could you add a new parameter
ghcb_version for sev_es_ghcb_hv_call() and then caller may input
ghcb_version?

Thanks.
