I'm Ok with using struct folio.
My previous ask was based on 2 considerations:

1. hpa is simpler and I didn't find Dave's NAK to Kirill's patch (v1 or v2).
2. using struct folio, I need to introduce "start_idx" as well (as below),
   because it's likely that guest_memfd provides a huge folio while KVM wants to
   map it at 4KB.

u64 tdh_mem_page_aug(struct tdx_td *td, u64 gpa, int level, struct folio *folio, 
                     unsigned long start_idx, u64 *ext_err1, u64 *ext_err2)      
{                                                                                
        struct page *start = folio_page(folio, start_idx);                       
        unsigned long npages = 1 << (level * PTE_SHIFT);                         
        struct tdx_module_args args = {                                          
                .rcx = gpa | level,                                              
                .rdx = tdx_tdr_pa(td),                                           
                .r8 = page_to_phys(start),                                       
        };                                                                       
        u64 ret;                                                                 
                                                                                 
        if (start_idx + npages > folio_nr_pages(folio))                          
                return TDX_SW_ERROR;                                             
                                                                                 
        for (int i = 0; i < npages; i++)                                         
                tdx_clflush_page(nth_page(start, i));                            
                                                                                 
        ret = seamcall_ret(TDH_MEM_PAGE_AUG, &args);
