The early decompression code does port I/O for its console output. But, handling the decompression-time port I/O demands a different approach from normal runtime because the IDT required to support #VE based port I/O emulation is not yet set up. Paravirtualizing I/O calls during the decompression step is acceptable because the decompression code doesn't have a lot of call sites to IO instruction. To support port I/O in decompression code, TDX must be detected before the decompression code might do port I/O. Detect whether the kernel runs in a TDX guest. Add an early_is_tdx_guest() interface to query the cached TDX guest status in the decompression code. TDX is detected with CPUID. Make cpuid_count() accessible outside boot/cpuflags.c. TDX detection in the main kernel is very similar. Move common bits into <asm/shared/tdx.h>. The actual port I/O paravirtualization will come later in the series.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
