[GIT PULL] x86/tdx for 6.15-rc1

[Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>]

Hi Linus,

Please pull some x86/tdx changes for 6.15-rc1. This is coming during the
merge window, but it is really a bug fix.

TDX guests aren't expected to use the HLT instruction directly. It
causes a virtualization exception (#VE). While the #VE _can_ be
handled, the current handling is slow and buggy and the easiest thing
is just to avoid HLT in the first place. Plus, the kernel already has
paravirt infrastructure that makes it relatively painless.

Make TDX guests require paravirt and add some TDX-specific paravirt
handlers which avoid HLT in the normal halt routines. Also add a warning
in case another HLT sneaks in.

There was a report that this leads to a "major performance improvement"
on specjbb2015, probably because of the extra #VE overhead or missed
wakeups from the buggy HLT handling.
