KVM: x86/mmu: Add dedicated API to map guest_memfd pfn into TDP MMU

Browse source

Add and use a new API for mapping a private pfn from guest_memfd into the
TDP MMU from TDX's post-populate hook instead of partially open-coding the
functionality into the TDX code.  Sharing code with the pre-fault path
sounded good on paper, but it's fatally flawed as simulating a fault loses
the pfn, and calling back into gmem to re-retrieve the pfn creates locking
problems, e.g. kvm_gmem_populate() already holds the gmem invalidation
lock.

Providing a dedicated API will also removing several MMU exports that
ideally would not be exposed outside of the MMU, let alone to vendor code.
On that topic, opportunistically drop the kvm_mmu_load() export.  Leave
kvm_tdp_mmu_gpa_is_mapped() alone for now; the entire commit that added
kvm_tdp_mmu_gpa_is_mapped() will be removed in the near future.

Gate the API on CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFD=y as private memory _must_ be backed
by guest_memfd.  Add a lockdep-only assert to that the incoming pfn is
indeed backed by guest_memfd, and that the gmem instance's invalidate lock
is held (which, combined with slots_lock being held, obviates the need to
check for a stale "fault").
