Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  [Impact]
  Google has requested a backport of the following commits:
  22cc5ca5de52 ("x86/paravirt: Move halt paravirt calls under CONFIG_PARAVIRT")
  9f98a4f4e721 ("x86/tdx: Fix arch_safe_halt() execution for TDX VMs")
  Targets include 6.8 onwards.

  [Fix]
  Backport the patches as needed to noble:linux-gcp and later kernels.

  [Test plan]
  Compile and boot test. Verification on Google's side is optional as this is a 
fairly isolated backport.

  [Where problems could occur]
  This fix affects TDX guest VMs which call the HLT instruction. An issue with 
this fix would be visible to the user as unexpected #VEs (virtualization 
exceptions) or unexpected interrupt behavior in their TDX guest VM.
