Re: [PATCH v5 16/16] x86/tdx: Add cmdline option to force use of ioremap_host_shared

I thought you basically create an OperationRegion of SystemMemory type,
and off you go. Maybe the OSPM in Linux is clever and protects
some memory, I wouldn't know.

I investigated this now, and it looks like acpi is using 
ioremap_cache(). We can hook into that and force non sharing. It's 
probably safe to assume that this is not used on real IO devices.

I think there are still some other BIOS mappings that use just plain 
ioremap() though.
