Subject: [PATCH 0/2] two KVM MMU fixes for TDX

Hi, 

There are two fixes to KVM MMU for TDX in response to two hypothetically
triggered errors:
(1) errors in tdh_mem_page_add(),
(2) fatal errors in tdh_mem_sept_add()/tdh_mem_page_aug().

Patch 1 handles the error in SEPT zap resulting from error (1).
Patch 2 fixes a possible stuck in the kernel loop introduced by error (2).
(A similar fix in SEPT SEAMCALL local retry is also required if the fix in
patch 2 looks good to you).

The two errors are not observed in any real workloads yet.
The series is tested by faking the error in the SEAMCALL wrapper while
bypassing the real SEAMCALLs.

Thanks
Yan
