SRU Justification:
[Impact]
UBUNTU: SAUCE: Revert "x86/mtrr: Rename mtrr_overwrite_state() to guest_force_mtrr_state()"
This reverts commit 6a5abeea9c72e1d2c538622b4cf66c80cc816fd3.
Google requests that this commit be removed from 6.14 kernels.
As such, questing:linux-gcp is also affected. This commit
along with 8e690b817e38769dc2fa0e7473e5a5dc1fc25795
("x86/kvm: Override default caching mode for SEV-SNP and TDX")
are responsible for a TPM failure encountered on their TDX-enabled
deployments. When present, error message "TPM fail - No TPM chip
found" is observed during boot and the TPM is not available.

[Fix]
Questing:gcp revert upstream commits
Plucky:gcp fixed separately
Noble:gcp-6.14 fixed separately
[Test Plan]
Compile and boot tested.
[Where problems could occur]
This change is considered low risk as the commits were cleanly
reverted.
