A TDX module initialization failure was reported on a Emerald Rapids
platform [*]:
virt/tdx: initialization failed: TDMR [0x0, 0x80000000): reserved areas exhausted.
virt/tdx: module initialization failed (-28)
As part of initializing the TDX module, the kernel informs the TDX
module of all "TDX-usable memory regions" using an array of TDX defined
structure "TD Memory Region" (TDMR). Each TDMR must be in 1GB aligned
and in 1GB granularity, and all "non-TDX-usable memory holes" within a
given TDMR are marked as "reserved areas". The TDX module reports a
maximum number of reserved areas that can be supported per TDMR (16).
The kernel builds the "TDX-usable memory regions" based on memblocks
(which reflects e820), and uses this list to find all "reserved areas"
for each TDMR.
It turns out that the kernel's view of memory holes is too fine grained
and sometimes exceeds the number of holes that the TDX module can track
per TDMR [1], resulting in the above failure.
Thankfully the module also lists memory that is potentially convertible
in a list of "Convertible Memory Regions" (CMRs). That coarser grained
CMR list tends to track usable memory in the memory map even if it might
be reserved for host usage like 'ACPI data' [2].
Use that list to relax what the kernel considers unusable memory. If it
falls in a CMR no need to instantiate a hole, and rely on the fact that
kernel will keep what it considers 'reserved' out of the page allocator.

This had me go check the inclusive vs exclusive range comparisons. Even
though it is not in this patch I think tdmr_populate_rsvd_holes() needs

I think you are right. Thanks for catching this.
But in practice this will not cause any problem because the check right
after it:
/*
* Skip over memory areas that
* have already been dealt with.
*/
if (start <= prev_end) {
prev_end = end;
continue;
}
.. will always be true and effectively skip this region.
So it is just a matter of 'skipping the region one step earlier or later'.

Yeah I agree logically this fixup is needed. I'll send out as a
separate patch and see.
