Let me say this less abstractly. Here's a somewhat concrete actual
proposal. Make a new memfd_create() flag like MEMFD_ISOLATED. The
semantics are that the underlying pages are made not-present in the
direct map when they're allocated (which is hideously slow, but so be
it), and that anything that tries to get_user_pages() the resulting
pages fails. And then make sure we have all the required APIs so that
QEMU can still map this stuff into a VM.
If there is indeed a situation in which MKTME-ifying the memory adds
some value, then we can consider doing that.
And maybe we get fancy and encrypt this memory when it's swapped, but
maybe we should just encrypt everything when it's swapped.
