Yes.

However those new SEAMCALLs are for TDX guest live migration support,  which is
at a year(s)-later thing from upstreaming's point of view.  My thinking is we
can defer supporting those new SEAMCALls until that phase.  Yes we need to do
some assembly change at that time, but also looks fine to me.

How does this sound?
