Please see my explanation in the commit message:

The __weak arch-specific hook is used instead of a new CC_ATTR similar
to disable software CPU hotplug. It is because some driver managed
memory resources may actually be TDX-capable (such as legacy PMEM, which
is underneath indeed RAM), and the arch-specific hook can be further
enhanced to allow those when needed.
