SEV, TDX, pkvm and software-only VMs seem to have usecases to set up
initial guest boot memory with the needed blobs.
TDX already supports a KVM IOCTL to transfer contents to private
memory using the TDX module but rest of the implementations will need
to invent
a way to do this.
Is there a plan to support a common implementation for either allowing
initial write access from userspace to private fd or adding a KVM
IOCTL to transfer contents to such a file,
as part of this series through future revisions?

Vishal
