Uh, so what happens if a malicious guest does RMPADJUST to convert a VMSA page
back to a "normal" page while the host is trying to VMRUN that VMSA?  Does VMRUN
fault?

Can Linux refuse to support this madness and instead require the ACPI MP wakeup
protocol being proposed/implemented for TDX?  That would allow KVM to have at
least a chance of refusing to support AP "creation", which IMO is a CVE or three
waiting to happen.  From a KVM perspective, I don't ever want to be running a
guest-defined VMSA.
