I will make the above change in next version.

If this is the recommendation, I am fine with it. It is
only used by __in/__out macros in decompression code.

Is it alright to use vendor name in prot_guest_has() flag? I thought
we want to keep them generic. If this is acceptable, we can replace
is_tdx_guest() with prot_guest_has() calls. Currently it is not used
in many places.

Yes. It is used in exported KVM functions.
