Hmm, so we can do

/sys/guest

and extend

/sys/hypervisor

Or we can do what you're suggesting.

If we do /sys/coco/host, then we'll have two different places to read HV info.

Or we can stick *everything* coco needs in

/sys/coco/{sev,tdx}

but then it is coco-specific and if other guest types want to put stuff in
sysfs, it'll get ugly.

So I guess having

/sys/guest
and
/sys/hypervisor

kinda keeps it all clean, hierarchy-wise...

Right?
