However, it turns out that we need to bring it back, but only for a TDX VM
with the paravisor: in such a VM, the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg is not decrypted,
but the HVCALL_POST_MESSAGE in such a VM needs a decrypted page as the
hypercall input page: see the comments in hyperv_init() for a detailed
explanation.

Except for HVCALL_POST_MESSAGE and HVCALL_SIGNAL_EVENT, the other hypercalls
in a TDX VM with the paravisor still use hv_hypercall_pg and must use the
hyperv_pcpu_input_arg (which is encrypted in such a VM), when a hypercall
input page is used.
