I was thinking how to respond.  I guess your point is we can also mention
KVM will need to use this too so it's better to change it before it gets
wider callers.  But I don't think it is needed because if it is misnamed
now then we already have a justification to do it.

And technically, I don't think the argument name used in KVM actually has
anything to do with the argument name used in the TD_SYSINFO_MAP() macro
definition here.  What really matters is when they get used, we need to
pass the "real struct member": 

	struct whatever {
		u64 a;
		u16 b;
	};

	#define TDX_INFO_MAP_WHATEVER(_field_id, _xyz)	\
		TD_SYSINFO_MAP(_field_id, struct whatever, _xyz)

	const struct tdx_metadata_field_mapping fields[] = {
		TDX_INFO_MAP_WHATEVER(_FIELD_A, a),
		TDX_INFO_MAP_WHATEVER(_FIELD_B, b),
	};

No?
