It's strange that as state of a PFN of SNP doesn't bind to individual 
VM, at least for the private pages.  The command rpm_make_private() 
indeed reflects the mapping between PFN <-> <GFN, SSID>.

	rc = rmp_make_private(pfn_aligned, gfn_to_gpa(gfn_aligned),
			level, sev->asid, false);

Do you mean private mappings for SNP guest can be zapped from the VM 
(the private pages are still there unchanged) and re-mapped later w/o 
needing to have guest's explicit acceptance?

If so, I think "we can zap" doesn't mean "we need to zap"?  Because the 
privates are now pinned anyway.  If we truly want to zap private 
mappings for SNP, IIUC it can be done by distinguishing whether a VM 
needs to use a separate private table, which is TDX-only.

I'll look into the SNP spec to understand more.
