Merge branch 'kvm-tdx-initial' into HEAD



This large commit contains the initial support for TDX in KVM.  All x86
parts enable the host-side hypercalls that KVM uses to talk to the TDX
module, a software component that runs in a special CPU mode called SEAM
(Secure Arbitration Mode).

The series is in turn split into multiple sub-series, each with a separate
merge commit:

- Initialization: basic setup for using the TDX module from KVM, plus
  ioctls to create TDX VMs and vCPUs.

- MMU: in TDX, private and shared halves of the address space are mapped by
  different EPT roots, and the private half is managed by the TDX module.
  Using the support that was added to the generic MMU code in 6.14,
  add support for TDX's secure page tables to the Intel side of KVM.
  Generic KVM code takes care of maintaining a mirror of the secure page
  tables so that they can be queried efficiently, and ensuring that changes
  are applied to both the mirror and the secure EPT.

- vCPU enter/exit: implement the callbacks that handle the entry of a TDX
  vCPU (via the SEAMCALL TDH.VP.ENTER) and the corresponding save/restore
  of host state.

- Userspace exits: introduce support for guest TDVMCALLs that KVM forwards to
  userspace.  These correspond to the usual KVM_EXIT_* "heavyweight vmexits"
  but are triggered through a different mechanism, similar to VMGEXIT for
  SEV-ES and SEV-SNP.

- Interrupt handling: support for virtual interrupt injection as well as
  handling VM-Exits that are caused by vectored events.  Exclusive to
  TDX are machine-check SMIs, which the kernel already knows how to
  handle through the kernel machine check handler (commit 7911f145,
  "x86/mce: Implement recovery for errors in TDX/SEAM non-root mode")

- Loose ends: handling of the remaining exits from the TDX module, including
  EPT violation/misconfig and several TDVMCALL leaves that are handled in
  the kernel (CPUID, HLT, RDMSR/WRMSR, GetTdVmCallInfo); plus returning
  an error or ignoring operations that are not supported by TDX guests
