Masks are identical, but they refer to different things. 
AVIC_HPA_MASK is about avic's fields in vmcb, while AVIC_PHYSICAL_ID_ENTRY_BACKING_PAGE_MASK
is about the portion of the physical id entry which has the address.

They are the same currently but for documentation purposes I don't understand
why removal of one of them makes sense.

IMHO, it's best to define them to the same value, e.g:

#define AVIC_HPA_MASK	GENMASK_ULL(51, 12)

#define AVIC_PHYSICAL_ID_ENTRY_BACKING_PAGE_MASK GENMASK_ULL(51, 12)

Best regards,
