Subject prefix should be "x86/tdx:" ofc.

Please no kernel proper includes in the decompressor stage - that thing
is an include hell mess and needs cleaning up. Use cpuid_count() from
arch/x86/boot/cpuflags.c by exporting it properly and add the other
defines here instead of using kernel proper facilities.

I know, I know, there is other misuse but it has to stop.

Why is this function prefixed with "native_"?

So I guess this is going to be used somewhere, because I don't see it.
Or is it going away in favor of prot_guest_has(PR_GUEST_TDX) ?

This is the problem with sending new versions of patches as a reply to
the old ones in the patchset: I get confused. Why don't you wait until
the whole thing has been reviewed and then send a new revision which has
all the changes and I can find my way in the context?

And with the amount of changes so far, you should probably send a new
revision of the initial support set now-ish instead of me reviewing this
one 'til the end.

Thx.
