Now if the TD module could deliver an unrecoverable #MC instead of an

doesn’t break confidentiality.

It is not impossible-to-handle #VE, it is no #VE for the guest and exit to
the host that cannot be recovered. Yes, it is not friednly for debugging.

Our plan was to allow SEPT_VE_DISABLE=0 for debug TD. It helps with
debugging stepping on unaccepted memory as allows #VE in the guest which
leads to panic() and nice traceback.

Would it be enough?
