I'll update it.

Because tdp_mmu_alloc_sp_for_split() may unlock mmu_lock and block.
While blocking, other thread operates on KVM MMU and gets confused due to
remaining TLB cache.

Hmm, we don't need it. When breaking up page table, we need to tlb flush
before issuing TDH.MEM.PAGE.DEMOTE(), not after it. Will remove those two lines.

This can happen with TDX_OPERAND_BUSY with secure-ept tree lock with other
vcpus TDH.VP.ENTER(). TDH.VP.ENTER() can take exclusive lock of secure-EPT.

Nice catch. I'll add split_sp = sp;

No. Because we unlock mmu_lock and may block when freeing memory.
