KVM: guest_memfd: Add interface for populating gmem pages with user data
During guest run-time, kvm_arch_gmem_prepare() is issued as needed to prepare newly-allocated gmem pages prior to mapping them into the guest. In the case of SEV-SNP, this mainly involves setting the pages to private in the RMP table. However, for the GPA ranges comprising the initial guest payload, which are encrypted/measured prior to starting the guest, the gmem pages need to be accessed prior to setting them to private in the RMP table so they can be initialized with the userspace-provided data. Additionally, an SNP firmware call is needed afterward to encrypt them in-place and measure the contents into the guest's launch digest. While it is possible to bypass the kvm_arch_gmem_prepare() hooks so that this handling can be done in an open-coded/vendor-specific manner, this may expose more gmem-internal state/dependencies to external callers than necessary. Try to avoid this by implementing an interface that tries to handle as much of the common functionality inside gmem as possible, while also making it generic enough to potentially be usable/extensible for TDX as well.
