x86/virt/tdx: Restore TDX module state
After per-CPU initialization, the module is nearly functional. It is in a similar state to TDX initialization before TDH.SYS.CONFIG. At this point, the kernel _could_ just repeat the boot-time sequence, but that would land the new module in a slightly different state than the old module. This would leave old TDs unrunnable, which is not a good outcome. Thankfully, the "handoff" data saved during module shutdown should contain all the information needed to restore the TDX module state to exactly what it was before the update. Restore TDX module state. The TDX module only needs a single copy so only do this on the lead CPU. Restoration errors can theoretically be handled in a few ways. For instance, userspace could try to load a different TDX module version. Or, the kernel could give up on the handoff process and just reinitialize the new module from scratch, which would lose all existing TDs. Simply propagate errors to userspace. Ignore the idea of a TD-destroying reinitialization. It would destroy data like a reboot and if things have gone that wrong a reboot is probably the best option anyway. Note: the location and the format of handoff data is defined by the TDX module. The new module knows where to get handoff data and how to parse it. The kernel does not touch it at all.
