The put_user() and get_user() functions do checks on the address which is
passed to them. They check whether the address is actually a user-space
address and whether its fine to access it. They also call might_fault()
to indicate that they could fault and possibly sleep.
All of these checks are neither wanted nor needed in the #VC exception
handler, which can be invoked from almost any context and also for MMIO
instructions from kernel space on kernel memory. All the #VC handler
wants to know is whether a fault happened when the access was tried.
This is provided by __put_user()/__get_user(), which just do the access
no matter what. Also add comments explaining why __get_user() and
__put_user() are the best choice here and why it is safe to use them
in this context. Also explain why copy_to/from_user can't be used.
In addition, also revert commit
7024f60d65 ("x86/sev-es: Handle string port IO to kernel memory properly")
because using __get_user()/__put_user() fixes the same problem while
the above commit introduced several problems:
1) It uses access_ok() which is only allowed in task context.
2) It uses memcpy() which has no fault handling at all and is
thus unsafe to use here.

When emulating guest instructions for MMIO or IOIO accesses, the #VC
handler might get a page-fault and will not be able to complete. Forward
the page-fault in this case to the correct handler instead of killing
the machine.

sev_es_get_ghcb() is called from several places but only one of them
checks the return value. The reaction to returning NULL is always the
same: calling panic() and kill the machine.
Instead of adding checks to all call sites, move the panic() into the
function itself so that it will no longer return NULL.

Since the VMGEXIT instruction can be issued from userspace, invalidate
the GHCB after performing VMGEXIT processing in the kernel.
Invalidation is only required after userspace is available, so call
vc_ghcb_invalidate() from sev_es_put_ghcb(). Update vc_ghcb_invalidate()
to additionally clear the GHCB exit code so that it is always presented
as 0 when VMGEXIT has been issued by anything else besides the kernel.

SEV-SNP builds upon the SEV-ES functionality while adding new hardware
protection. Version 2 of the GHCB specification adds new NAE events that
are SEV-SNP specific. Rename the sev-es.{ch} to sev.{ch} so that all
SEV* functionality can be consolidated in one place.
