Paolo Bonzini 7d8942d8e7 KVM GUEST_MEMFD fixes for 6.8:
- Make KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD mutually exclusive with KVM_MEM_READONLY to
    avoid creating ABI that KVM can't sanely support.
 
  - Update documentation for KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM to make it abundantly
    clear that such VMs are purely a development and testing vehicle, and
    come with zero guarantees.
 
  - Limit KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM guests to the TDP MMU, as the long term plan
    is to support confidential VMs with deterministic private memory (SNP
    and TDX) only in the TDP MMU.
 
  - Fix a bug in a GUEST_MEMFD negative test that resulted in false passes
    when verifying that KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD memslots can't be dirty logged.

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
