This needs a comment.

This is another case where it's confusing to be passing around 'struct
tdmr_info *'.  Is this *A* TDMR or an array?


/*
 * Go through tdx_memlist to find holes between memory areas.  If any of
 * those holes fall within @tdmr, set up a TDMR reserved area to cover
 * the hole.
 */
static int tdmr_populate_rsvd_holes(struct list_head *tdx_memlist,
				    struct tdmr_info *tdmr,
				    int *rsvd_idx)

I'm having a hard time following this, especially the mixing of
semantics between 'prev_end' both pointing to tdmr and to tmb addresses.

Here, 'prev_end' logically represents the last address which we know has
been handled.  All of the holes in the addresses below it have been
dealt with.  It is safe to set here to tdmr_start() because this
function call is uniquely tasked with setting up reserved areas in
'tdmr'.  So, it can safely consider any holes before tdmr_start(tdmr) as
being handled.

But, dang, there's a lot of complexity there.

First, the:

	/* Mark holes between memory regions as reserved */

comment is misleading.  It has *ZILCH* to do with the "prev_end =
tdmr_start(tdmr);" assignment.

This at least needs:

   /* Start looking for reserved blocks at the beginning of the TDMR: */
   prev_end = tdmr_start(tdmr);

but I also get the feeling that 'prev_end' is a crummy variable name.  I
don't have any better suggestions at the moment.

More alignment opportunities:

		start = tmb->start_pfn << PAGE_SHIFT;
		end   = tmb->end_pfn   << PAGE_SHIFT;

Can't this just be:

Ugh, and I guess we don't know where the PAMTs will be ordered with
respect to holes, so sorting is the easiest way to do this.
