  x86/cpuid: Remove transitional <asm/cpuid.h> header (2025-08-15 17:06:23 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
- Remove a transitional asm/cpuid.h header which was added only as
  a fallback during cpuid helpers reorg

- Initialize reserved fields in the SVSM page validation calls structure
  to zero in order to allow for future structure extensions

- Have the sev-guest driver's buffers used in encryption operations be
  in linear mapping space as the encryption operation can be offloaded
  to an accelerator

- Have a read-only MSR write when in an AMD SNP guest trap to the
  hypervisor as it is usually done. This makes the guest user experience
  better by simply raising a #GP instead of terminating said guest

- Do not output AVX512 elapsed time for kernel threads because the data
  is wrong and fix a NULL pointer dereferencing in the process

- Adjust the SRSO mitigation selection to the new attack vectors
