This sentence is hard to interpret. Please add more sentences to elaborate "TDX
will run with EPT violation #VEs enabled for shared EPT". Also, this patch is
the first time to introduce "shared EPT", perhaps you should also explain it
here. Or even you can move patch 43 ("KVM: TDX: Add load_mmu_pgd method for
TDX") before this one.

"reflecting non-present EPT violations into the guest" could be hard to
interpret. Perhaps you can be more explicit to say VMM wants to get EPT
violation for normal (shared) memory access rather than to cause #VE to guest.

Mentioning you want EPT violation instead of #VE for normal (shared) memory
access also completes your statement of wanting #VE for MMIO below, so that
people can have a clear picture when to get a #VE when not.

allocate -> Allocate

Here you have described both normal memory access and MMIO, it's good time to
summarize the purpose of this patch: For both cases you want PTE with "suppress
#VE" bit set initially when it is allocated, therefore allow non-zero init value
for PTE.

I guess it's better to have some comment here. Allow non-zero init value for
shadow PTE doesn't necessarily mean the initial value should be used when one
PTE is zapped. I think mmu_spte_clear_track_bits() is only called for mapping
of normal (shared) memory but not MMIO? Then perhaps it's better to have a
comment to explain we want "suppress #VE" set to get a real EPT violation for
normal memory access from guest?

Similar here. Seems mmu_spte_clear_no_track() is used to zap non-leaf PTE which
doesn't require state tracking, so theoretically it can be set to 0. But this
seems is also called to zap MMIO PTE so looks need to set to shadow_init_value.
Anyway looks deserve a comment?

Btw, Above two changes to mmu_spte_clear_track_bits() and
mmu_spte_clear_track_bits() seems a little bit out-of-scope of what this patch
claims to do. Allow non-zero init value for shadow PTE doesn't necessarily mean
the initial value should be used when one PTE is zapped. Maybe we can further
improve the patch title and commit message a little bit. Such as: Allow non-
zero value for empty (or invalid?) PTE? Non-present seems doesn't fit here.

I don't quite understand this change. 'spte' is set to the last level PTE of
the given GFN if mapping is found. Otherwise fast_page_fault() returns
RET_PF_INVALID. In both cases, the initial value doesn't matter.

Am I wrong?
