Please see my reply to your patch "KVM: TDX: Initialize TDX module when loading
kvm_intel.ko".

The introduce of __weak kvm_arch_post_hardware_enable_setup() should be in that
patch since it has nothing to do the job you claimed to do in this patch.

And by removing it, this patch can be taken out of TDX series and upstreamed
separately.
