Alan: Looks like the original intel_pxp_init (with only the change to HAS_PXP to take in gt as input) might be
sufficient for all cases we have with today's hw - without the need for the pxptee_iface_owner or has_nonroot_pxpgt:

	* for HW without PXP/GSC-HuC-Authent: will fail on either HAS_PXP and _gt_needs_teelink
	* for adl/tgl: HAS_PXP will PASS
	* for dg2: HAS_PXP will fail, but _gt_needs_teelink will pass
	* for mtl: HAS_PXP will pass for 2nd tile only due to VDBOX mask
