Pull in recent TDX updates, which are not backwards compatible.
It's just to make this series runnable. It will be updated by script
scripts/update-linux-headers.sh
once TDX support is upstreamed in linux kernel.
I saw a bunch of TDX support merged in 5.19:

Pull Intel TDX support from Borislav Petkov:
"Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) support.
This is the Intel version of a confidential computing solution called
Trust Domain Extensions (TDX). This series adds support to run the
kernel as part of a TDX guest. It provides similar guest protections
to AMD's SEV-SNP like guest memory and register state encryption,
memory integrity protection and a lot more.
Design-wise, it differs from AMD's solution considerably: it uses a
software module which runs in a special CPU mode called (Secure
Arbitration Mode) SEAM. As the name suggests, this module serves as
sort of an arbiter which the confidential guest calls for services it
needs during its lifetime.
Just like AMD's SNP set, this series reworks and streamlines certain
parts of x86 arch code so that this feature can be properly
accomodated"
Is that sufficient for this patch, or is there more pending out of
tree that QEMU still depends on ?
