Do you really need to zero out the whole 4k? The validation bitmap
should be enough, there are no secrets on the page anyway.
Same in hv_ghcb_msr_read().

OK. Thanks for suggestion. I will have a try.

No, do not make this function work with ctxt==NULL. Instead, factor out
a helper function which contains what Hyper-V needs and use that in
sev_es_ghcb_hv_call() and Hyper-V code.


OK. Will update.

+union hv_ghcb {
+	struct ghcb ghcb;
+} __packed __aligned(PAGE_SIZE);

I am curious what this will end up being good for.


Hyper-V introduces a specific hypercall request in GHCB page and use same union in the Linux Hyper-V code to read/write MSR and call the new hypercall request.
