Let me give it a try to remove source from struct kvm_memory_mapping. With the
unit in byte instead of page, it will be
struct kvm_memory_mapping {
__u64 base_address;
__u64 size;
__u64 flags;
};
SNP won't have any changes. Always error for KVM_MAP_MEMORY for SNP?
(I'll leave it to Roth.)
TDX will have TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION with new implementation.
