Looking at code more, I think this patch is broken. There are couple of issues
if I understand correctly:
- Rick's original patch has stolen_bits_mask encoded in 'struct kvm_mmu_page',
so basically a new page table is allocated for different aliasing GPA. Sean
suggested to use role.private instead of stolen_bits_mask so I changed but that
was lost in this patch too. Therefore essentially, with this patch, all
aliasing GFNs share the same page table and the same mapping. There's slight
difference between TDP MMU and legacy MMU, that the former purely uses 'fault-
>gfn' (which doesn't have aliasing bit) to iterate page table and the latter
uses 'fault->addr' (which contains the aliasing bit), but this makes little
difference. With this patch, all aliasing GFNs share page table and the
mapping. This is not what we want, and this is wrong.
- The original change to get GFN w/o aliasing for MTRR check (below) is lost.
And there are some other changes that are also lost (such as don't support
aliasing for private (user-invisible, not TDX private) memory slot), but it's
not immediately apparent to me whether this is an issue.

- gfn_t base = (gpa >> PAGE_SHIFT) & ~(page_num - 1);
+ gfn_t base = vcpu_gpa_to_gfn_unalias(vcpu, gpa) & ~(page_num -
1);
Another thing is above change to kvm_flush_remote_tlbs_with_range() to make it
flush TLBs for mappings for all aliasing for a given GFN range doesn't fit for
TDX. TDX private mapping and shared mapping cannot co-exist therefore when a
page that has multiple aliasing mapped to it is taken out, only one mapping is
valid (not to mention private page cannot be taken out). This is one of the
reasons that I think this GPA stolen bits infrastructure isn't that mandatory
for TDX. I think it's OK to ditch this infrastructure and adopt what TDX needs
(the concept of private/shared mapping).
