I mean ... it's already wide spread. If we support it with TDX it will be used with TDX. If we don't then I guess it won't, exposing this kind of limitation in a userspace visible way isn't great though. I guess it boils down to the fact that ioremap_host_shared is just not a great interface, users simply have no idea whether a given driver uses ioremap.
