Let x86 track the number of address spaces on a per-VM basis so that KVM can disallow SMM memslots for confidential VMs. Confidentials VMs are fundamentally incompatible with emulating SMM, which as the name suggests requires being able to read and write guest memory and register state. Disallowing SMM will simplify support for guest private memory, as KVM will not need to worry about tracking memory attributes for multiple address spaces (SMM is the only "non-default" address space across all architectures).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
