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().

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.

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