Thanks for reviewing!

Sorry obviously I forgot to remove __always_unused in the patch that firstly
used seamcall().  Should be more careful. :(

I'll @seamcall_ret as also suggested by Kirill.

Sorry I don't know the story behind __tdx_hypercall().

For TDCALL and SEAMCALL, I believe one reason is they can be used in performance
critical path.  The @out is not always used, so putting all outputs to a
structure can reduce the number of function parameters. I once had separate
struct tdx_seamcall_input {} and struct tdx_seamcall_out {} but wasn't
preferred.

Kirill, could you help to explain?

I want to have a stable cpu for error message printing.

SEAMCALL itself isn't interruptible, so I think having preemption off around
SEAMCALL is fine.  But I agree disabling preemption around multiple SEAMCALL
isn't ideal.  I'll change that to only disable preemption around one SEAMCALL to
get a correct CPU id for error printing.

I can certainly change to this style.  Thanks.
