Re: [BUG] Fault during memory acceptance for TDX VMs with certain memory sizes

What about the patch below. It seems we under-reserve memory for the
table if it is unaligned.
I still think that we need align start/size/end to the PAGE_SIZE in
accept_memory()/range_contains_unaccepted_memory() before doing anything
else. Otherwise (end % unit_size) check is broken. But it seems to be
unrelated to the problem you see.

Thanks, this patch seems to fix the problem causing the panic. The VM boots as expected with this.
Please let me know if any more information is required.
