Sure, I can reject file mappings. I didn't catch that was the ask 
previously and thought it was only a comment about behavior of file 
mappings.

The user interface design for *shared* memory aligns with 
KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION.

I understood we want to use restricted memfd for giving guest-private 
memory (Gunyah calls this "lending memory"). When I went through the 
changes, I gathered KVM is using restricted memfd only for guest-private 
memory and not for shared memory. Thus, I dropped support for lending 
memory to the guest VM and only retained the shared memory support in 
this series. I'd like to merge what we can today and introduce the 
guest-private memory support in tandem with the restricted memfd; I 
don't see much reason to delay the series.

I briefly evaluated and picked the arm64/pKVM support that Fuad shared 
[2] and found it should be fine for Gunyah. I did build-only at the 
time. I don't have any comments on the base restricted_memfd support and 
Fuad has not posted [2] on mailing lists yet as far as I can tell.

I am a little confused why the implementation to share memory with the 
VM is being rejected. Besides rejecting file mappings, any other changes 
needed to be accepted?
