Merge tag 'x86_tdx_for_6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 TDX updates from Dave Hansen:
 "Intel Trust Domain updates.

  The existing TDX code needs a _bit_ of metadata from the TDX module.
  But KVM is going to need a bunch more very shortly. Rework the
  interface with the TDX module to be more consistent and handle the new
  higher volume.

  The TDX module has added a few new features. The first is a promise
  not to clobber RBP under any circumstances. Basically the kernel now
  will refuse to use any modules that don't have this promise. Second,
  enable the new "REDUCE_VE" feature. This ensures that the TDX module
  will not send some silly virtualization exceptions that the guest had
  no good way to handle anyway.

   - Centralize global metadata infrastructure

   - Use new TDX module features for exception suppression and RBP
     clobbering"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
