Isaku pointed out the normal spinlock_t is converted to sleeping lock for
PREEMPT_RT kernel.  KVM calls this with IRQ disabled, thus requires a non-
sleeping lock.

How about adding below comment here?

	/*
	 * Normal spinlock_t is converted to sleeping lock in PREEMPT_RT
	 * kernel.  Use raw_spinlock_t instead so this function can be called
	 * even when IRQ is disabled in any kernel configuration.

Yeah.  Will do.  Thanks for reminding.

I'll add one sentence to the changelog to explain:

	Export both tdx_cpu_enable() and tdx_enable() as KVM will be the kernel
	component to use TDX.

I did.  However I might have a bad taste :)

Will change (and change other pr() if there's similar problem).
