I was mislead by a bug that only existed in v6. Which I fixed now.
So any bug possibility with hotplug, SGX and CXL, or pcihole64 is simply covered with:

	pc_pci_hole64_start() + pci_hole64_size;

which is what pc_max_used_gpa() does. This works fine /without/ above_4g_mem_size != 0
check even without above_4g_mem_size (e.g. mem=2G,maxmem=1024G).

And as a reminder: SGX, hotplug, CXL and pci-hole64 *require* memory above 4G[*]. And part
of the point of us moving to pc_pci_hole64_start() was to make these all work in a generic
way.

So I've removed the x86ms->above_4g_mem_size != 0 check. Current patch diff pasted at the end.

[*] As reiterated here:

I was over-complicating things here. It turns out nothing else is needed aside in the
context of 1T hole.

This is because I only need to check address space limits (as consequence of
pc_set_amd_above_4g_mem_start()) when pc_max_used_gpa() surprasses HT_START. Which
requires fundamentally a value closer to 1T well beyond what 32-bit can cover. So on
32-bit guests this is never true and thus it things don't change behaviour from current
default for these guests. And thus I won't break qtests and things fail correctly in the
right places.

Now I should say that pc_max_used_gpa() is still not returning the accurate 32-bit guest
max used GPA value, given that I return pci hole64 end (essentially). Do you still that
addressed out of correctness even if it doesn't matter much for the 64-bit 1T case?

If so, our only option seems to be to check phys_bits <= 32 and return max CPU
boundary there? Unless you have something enterily different in mind?
