  SEV: disable SEV-ES DebugSwap by default (2024-03-09 11:42:25 -0500)

Sorry that this comes in a bit late.

It's a bunch of fixes mostly involving confidential VMs; in particular,
many of the commits constrain the new guest_memfd API a bit more, so
that we're not stuck supporting more than it's necessary.  However,
there's also a rare failure to mark a guest page as dirty and a fix
for awful startup performance with preemptible kernels (including
CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC in non-preemptible mode) of guests with many vCPUs.

----------------------------------------------------------------
KVM GUEST_MEMFD fixes for 6.8:

- Make KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD mutually exclusive with KVM_MEM_READONLY to
  avoid creating an inconsistent ABI (KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD is not writable
  from userspace, so there would be no way to write to a read-only
  guest_memfd).

- Update documentation for KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM to make it abundantly
  clear that such VMs are purely for development and testing.

- Limit KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM guests to the TDP MMU, as the long term plan
  is to support confidential VMs with deterministic private memory (SNP
  and TDX) only in the TDP MMU.

- Fix a bug in a GUEST_MEMFD dirty logging test that caused false passes.

x86 fixes:

- Fix missing marking of a guest page as dirty when emulating an atomic access.

- Check for mmu_notifier invalidation events before faulting in the pfn,
  and before acquiring mmu_lock, to avoid unnecessary work and lock
  contention with preemptible kernels (including CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
  in non-preemptible mode).

- Disable AMD DebugSwap by default, it breaks VMSA signing and will be
  re-enabled with a better VM creation API in 6.10.

- Do the cache flush of converted pages in svm_register_enc_region() before
  dropping kvm->lock, to avoid a race with unregistering of the same region
  and the consequent use-after-free issue.
