I just mean that we don't actually have additional userspace exits for
doing lazy-faulting in this manner, because prior to mapping restricted
page into the TDP, we will have gotten a KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT anyway so
that userspace can handle the conversion, so if you do the fallocate()
prior to KVM_MEM_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION, there's no additional KVM exits
(unless you count the fallocate() syscall itself but that seems
negligable compared to memory allocation).
For instance on QEMU side we do the fallocate() as part of
kvm_convert_memory() helper.
But thinking about it more, the main upside to this approach (giving VMM
control/accounting over restrictedmem allocations), doesn't actually
work out. For instance if VMM fallocate()'s memory for a single 4K page
prior to shared->private conversion, shmem might still allocate a THP for
that whole 2M range, and userspace doesn't have a good way to account
for this. So what I'm proposing probably isn't feasible anyway.

Ok, yah after some more thought this probably is the more feasible
approach. Thanks for your input on this.
