Documentation: KVM: Synchronize x86 VM types

[PATCH] Documentation: KVM: Synchronize x86 VM types

Posted by Carlos López 4 days, 18 hours ago

KVM has reflected KVM_X86_SNP_VM to userspace since 1dfe571c12cf
("KVM: SEV: Add initial SEV-SNP support"), and KVM_X86_TDX_VM since
161d34609f9b ("KVM: TDX: Make TDX VM type supported"). Update the
documentation to reflect this fact.

Fixes: 1dfe571c12cf ("KVM: SEV: Add initial SEV-SNP support")
Fixes: 161d34609f9b ("KVM: TDX: Make TDX VM type supported")
