x86/virt/tdx: Drop the outdated requirement that TDX be enabled in IRQ context
Remove TDX's outdated requirement that per-CPU enabling be done via IPI function call, which was a stale artifact leftover from early versions of the TDX enablement series. The requirement that IRQs be disabled should have been dropped as part of the revamped series that relied on a the KVM rework to enable VMX at module load. In other words, the kernel's "requirement" was never a requirement at all, but instead a reflection of how KVM enabled VMX (via IPI callback) when the TDX subsystem code was merged. Note, accessing per-CPU information is safe even without disabling IRQs, as tdx_online_cpu() is invoked via a cpuhp callback, i.e. from a per-CPU thread.
