[PATCH v4 21/22] x86/virt/tdx: Support kexec()

[Kai Huang <kai.huang@intel.com>]

To support kexec(), if the TDX module is ever initialized, the kernel
needs to flush all dirty cachelines associated with any TDX private
KeyID, otherwise they may slightly corrupt the new kernel.

Following SME support, use wbinvd() to flush cache in stop_this_cpu().
Theoretically, cache flush is only needed when the TDX module has been
initialized.  However initializing the TDX module is done on demand at
runtime, and it takes a mutex to read the module status.  Just check
whether TDX is enabled by BIOS instead to flush cache.

The current TDX module architecture doesn't play nicely with kexec().
The TDX module can only be initialized once during its lifetime, and
there is no SEAMCALL to reset the module to give a new clean slate to
the new kernel.  Therefore, ideally, if the module is ever initialized,
it's better to shut down the module.  The new kernel won't be able to
use TDX anyway (as it needs to go through the TDX module initialization
process which will fail immediately at the first step).

However, there's no guarantee CPU is in VMX operation during kexec().
This means it's impractical to shut down the module.  Just do nothing
but leave the module open.
