ioremap() is required for all architectures. So I think adding support for it
and creating io.h for every arch seems valid. But are you sure every arch cares
about protected guest support?

IMHO, its better to leave it to arch maintainers to decide if they want
to support protected guest or not.

This can be easily achieved by defining generic arch independent config
option ARCH_HAS_PORTECTED_GUEST.

And any arch which wants to support prot_guest_has() can enable above
config option and create their own asm/protected_guest.h

This model is similar to linux/mem_encrypt.h.

With above suggested change, header file will look like below. And we
don't need implement asm/protected_guest.h for every available arch.

--- a/include/linux/protected_guest.h
+++ b/include/linux/protected_guest.h

#ifndef _LINUX_PROTECTED_GUEST_H
#define _LINUX_PROTECTED_GUEST_H 1

/* Protected Guest Feature Flags (leave 0-0xff for arch specific flags) */

/* Support for guest encryption */
#define PR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT			0x100
/* Encryption support is active */
#define PR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT_ACTIVE		0x101
/* Support for unrolled string IO */
#define PR_GUEST_UNROLL_STRING_IO		0x102
/* Support for host memory encryption */
#define PR_GUEST_HOST_MEM_ENCRYPT		0x103
/* Support for shared mapping initialization (after early init) */
#define PR_GUEST_SHARED_MAPPING_INIT		0x104

#ifdef ARCH_HAS_PROTECTED_GUEST
#include <asm/protected_guest.h>
#else
static inline bool prot_guest_has(unsigned long flag) { return false; }
#endif

#endif /* _LINUX_PROTECTED_GUEST_H */
