I've added a brief comment in tboot.h.

> It can't use ioremap() or early_ioremap()?

The tboot_probe() fn that maps the shared page is called too early in boot to use ioremap(). And since the shared page needs to remain mapped for the lifetime of the kernel, it did not seem appropriate to use early_ioremap() (which is specified as being for temporary boot-time mappings).

Done.

Fixed.

Good catch; yes, it will be needed for proper shutdown of the system. I'll add a dependency on it.

It seems logical to keep the definition of the UUID in the header file with the data struct that uses it. But I created a static var in tboot_probe() defined as __initdata to hold it so that the memory can be reclaimed post-init.

Both 32b and 64b are supported and have been tested. TXT has some address restrictions (<4GB) that resulted in some of these. However, I have converted these to %llx and removed the cast.

This isn't needed after all and has been removed.

Not really--this data structure gets validated as part of the TXT launch process and only tboot and the kernel execute after that point. So since none of them modify this structure, it should still be valid (as valid as any other kernel data struct which does not get re-validated on every use).
