  9fdabaaf0346 KVM: TDX: Make TDX VM type supported
  fa6b8135913c KVM: x86: Introduce vm_type to differentiate default VMs 
from confidential VMs
  6dbc1fdfb61f KVM: TDX: Add placeholders for TDX VM/vcpu structure
  64a9c956f265 KVM: TDX: Initialize the TDX module when loading the KVM 
intel kernel module
  bacb6554fcf5 KVM: x86/vmx: Refactor KVM VMX module init/exit functions
  b17eee6a7d53 KVM: VMX: Move out vmx_x86_ops to 'main.c' to wrap VMX 
and TDX
  5a8b8d63a2e8 x86/mtrr: Mask out keyid bits from variable mtrr mask 
register
  29017e2c04cc KVM: arm64: Mark kvm_arm_init() and its unique 
descendants as __init


I find above 8 patches not included in this patch series after TDX host 
kernel support series. Some of them were included in v11 before, and I 
think they are important to make the patch series intact. What's the 
reason for not including them?
