I'd much rather these be:

	tdx->tdvpr_page = alloc_page(GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT);

and then you pass around the struct page and do:

	.rcx = page_to_phys(tdvpr)

Because it's honestly _not_ an address.  It really and truly is a page
and you never need to dereference it, only pass it around as a handle.
You could get fancy and make a typedef for it or something, or even

struct tdvpr_struct {
	struct page *page;
}

But that's probably overkill.  It would help to, for instance, avoid
mixing up these two pages:

+u64 tdh_vp_create(u64 tdr, u64 tdvpr);

But it wouldn't help as much for these:

+u64 tdh_vp_addcx(u64 tdvpr, u64 tdcx);
+u64 tdh_vp_init(u64 tdvpr, u64 initial_rcx);
+u64 tdh_vp_init_apicid(u64 tdvpr, u64 initial_rcx, u32 x2apicid);
+u64 tdh_vp_flush(u64 tdvpr);
+u64 tdh_vp_rd(u64 tdvpr, u64 field, u64 *data);
+u64 tdh_vp_wr(u64 tdvpr, u64 field, u64 data, u64 mask);

Except for (for instance) 'tdr' vs. 'tdvpr' confusion.  Spot the bug:

	tdh_vp_flush(kvm_tdx(foo)->tdr_pa);
	tdh_vp_flush(kvm_tdx(foo)->tdrvp_pa);

Do you want the compiler's help for those?
