Yes. KVM differeniates "interrupt allowed" from "has interrupt", e.g.,

static inline bool kvm_vcpu_has_events(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
..

	if (kvm_arch_interrupt_allowed(vcpu) &&
	    (kvm_cpu_has_interrupt(vcpu) ||
	    kvm_guest_apic_has_interrupt(vcpu)))
		return true;


I think tdx_protected_apic_has_interrupt() mixes them together, which isn't
good.

Probably it is a minor thing; if no one else thinks it is better to move the
"interrupt allowed" check to tdx_interrupt_allowed(), I am also fine with not
doing that.
