Pull tdx updates from Dave Hansen:
"These essentially refine some interactions between TDX guests and
VMMs.
The first leverages a new TDX module feature to runtime disable the
ability for a VM to inject #VE exceptions. Before this feature, there
was only a static on/off switch and the guest had to panic if it was
configured in a bad state.
The second lets the guest opt in to be able to access the topology
CPUID leaves. Before this, accesses to those leaves would #VE.
For both of these, it would have been nicest to just change the
default behavior, but some pesky "other" OSes evidently need to retain
the legacy behavior.
Summary:
- Add new infrastructure for reading TDX metadata
- Use the newly-available metadata to:
- Disable potentially nasty #VE exceptions
- Get more complete CPU topology information from the VMM"

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.
