Could we still call kvm_mmu_invalidate_zap_pages_in_memslot() here?
As I know, for TDX, its version of
kvm_mmu_invalidate_zap_pages_in_memslot() is like

static void kvm_mmu_invalidate_zap_pages_in_memslot(struct kvm *kvm,
                        struct kvm_memory_slot *slot,
                        struct kvm_page_track_notifier_node *node)
{
        if (kvm_gfn_shared_mask(kvm))
                kvm_mmu_zap_memslot(kvm, slot);
        else
                kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast(kvm);
}

Maybe this kind of judegment is better to be confined in mmu.c?

Thanks
Yan
