Yes.  Much better.

The other callbacks don't have #ifdefs either and they're dependent on
memory encryption as far as I can tell.

I think a simple:

	if (IS_ENABLED(COFNIG_KEXEC_CORE))
		return;

in the top of the callbacks will result in a tiny little stub function
when kexec is disabled.  So the bloat will be limited to kernels that
have TDX compiled in but kexec compiled out (probably never).  The bloat
will be two callback pointer, one tiny stub function, and a quick
call/return in a slow path.

I think that probably ends up being a few dozen bytes of bloat in kernel
text for a "probably never" config.
