Subject: [RFC PATCH v5 05/45] KVM: TDX: Drop kvm_x86_ops.link_external_spt(),
use .set_external_spte() for all
Drop the dedicated .link_external_spt() for linking non-leaf S-EPT pages,
and instead funnel everything through .set_external_spte(). Using separate
hooks doesn't help prevent TDP MMU details from bleeding into TDX, and vice
versa; to the contrary, dedicated callbacks will result in _more_ pollution
when hugepage support is added, e.g. will require the TDP MMU to know
details about the splitting rules for TDX that aren't all that relevant to
the TDP MMU.
Ideally, KVM would provide a single pair of hooks to set S-EPT entries,
one hook for setting SPTEs under write-lock and another for settings SPTEs
under read-lock (e.g. to ensure the entire operation is "atomic", to allow
for failure, etc.). Sadly, TDX's requirement that all child S-EPT entries
are removed before the parent makes that impractical: the TDP MMU
deliberately prunes non-leaf SPTEs and _then_ processes its children, thus
making it quite important for the TDP MMU to differentiate between zapping
leaf and non-leaf S-EPT entries.
However, that's the _only_ case that's truly special, and even that case
could be shoehorned into a single hook; it's just wouldn't be a net
positive.
