Just a couple of style nits here - this new __sev_cpuid_hv_ghcb()
function should follow the existing SEV* (and general x86) style:
- When mentioning instruction mnemonics, please capitalize them, such
as XGETBV here.
- Same goes for registers, such as XCR0.
- Finally, if a comment line turns a branch into a multi-line
statement, curly braces are needed, even if it's technically still a
single statement per the C syntax which eliminates comments at the
preprocessor level.
Thanks,
Ingo
