[PATCH v5 04/22] x86/virt/seamldr: Introduce a wrapper for P-SEAMLDR SEAMCALLs

[Chao Gao]

The TDX architecture uses the "SEAMCALL" instruction to communicate with
SEAM mode software. Right now, the only SEAM mode software that the kernel
communicates with is the TDX module. But, there is actually another
component that runs in SEAM mode but it is separate from the TDX module:
the persistent SEAM loader or "P-SEAMLDR". Right now, the only component
that communicates with it is the BIOS which loads the TDX module itself at
boot. But, to support updating the TDX module, the kernel now needs to be
able to talk to it.

P-SEAMLDR SEAMCALLs differ from TDX module SEAMCALLs in areas such as
concurrency requirements. Add a P-SEAMLDR wrapper to handle these
differences and prepare for implementing concrete functions.

Note that unlike P-SEAMLDR, there is also a non-persistent SEAM loader
("NP-SEAMLDR"). This is an authenticated code module (ACM) that is not
callable at runtime. Only BIOS launches it to load P-SEAMLDR at boot;
the kernel does not need to interact with it for runtime update.

For details of P-SEAMLDR SEAMCALLs, see Intel® Trust Domain CPU
Architectural Extensions, Revision 343754-002, Chapter 2.3 "INSTRUCTION
SET REFERENCE".

v5:
 - Don't save/restore irq flags as P-SEAMLDR calls are made only in process
   context
 - clarify why raw_spinlock is used [Dave]
v4:
 - Give more background about P-SEAMLDR in changelog [Dave]
 - Don't handle P-SEAMLDR's "no_entropy" error [Dave]
 - Assume current VMCS is preserved across P-SEAMLDR calls [Dave]
 - I'm not adding Reviewed-by tags as the code has changed significantly.
v2:
 - don't create a new, inferior framework to save/restore VMCS
 - use human-friendly language, just "current VMCS" rather than
   SDM term "current-VMCS pointer"
 - don't mix guard() with goto
