Yes, this part should be dropped. Because we will have vCPUID.MTRR=0 for TDX in
long term, we can make kvm_mmu_honors_guest_mtrrs() always false. Maybe
kvm->arch.disbled_mtrr or guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_MTRR) = false. We
will enforce vcpu.CPUID.MTRR=false.
Guest MTRR=0 support can be independently addressed.

This should be cleaned up. It can be pushed down into kvm_tdp_mmu_alloc_root().
void kvm_tdp_mmu_alloc_root(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
allocate shared root

We are going to flags like has_mirrored_pt and we have root page table iterator
with types specified. I'll investigate how we can reduce (or eliminate)
those helper functions.

Totally agree that it deserves for documentation. I would update the design
document of TDX TDP MMU to include it. This patch series doesn't include it,
though.

Which name do you prefer? has_mirrored_pt or has_mirrored_private_pt?
