Nit, when calling out minor amendments, IMO the blurb in the square braces should
be after the previous SoB so that there's a clear, consistent chain of handling
and ordering.  I.e.

  Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  [Rick: enhance log]
  Signed-off-by: Rick Edgecombe <rick.p.edgecombe@xxxxxxxxx>
  [Vishal: reduce to a simple move of architectural defines only]
  Signed-off-by: Vishal Verma <vishal.l.verma@xxxxxxxxx>

That makes it clear the Kirill signed off on something, then Rick tweaked the
changelog and signed off on _that_, and Vishal came along and simplified the
path.

For the record, the defines in tdx_errno.h are only ever used by arch/x86/kvm/vmx/tdx.c,
and that file already included asm/shared/tdx.h by way of arch/x86/include/asm/tdx.h.
