Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Low] The global variable `tdx_enable_dpamt` is defined without the `static` keyword, polluting the global namespace.

--- Patch [9]: [PATCH v7 09/11] x86/virt/tdx: Enable Dynamic PAMT ---
commit a5e057035573a191a887572dacd25f3faa79112d
Author: Kiryl Shutsemau <kas@kernel.org>

x86/virt/tdx: Enable Dynamic PAMT

This commit enables Dynamic PAMT for TDX modules to reduce memory usage
during module initialization. It introduces a kernel command line parameter
"tdx_dpamt" to allow users to opt-in to this feature when supported by the
hardware.

[Severity: Low]
Since tdx_enable_dpamt is only used within this file, should it be marked
as static? Leaving it globally exposed can trigger compiler warnings like
-Wmissing-declarations when building with W=1 and unnecessarily pollutes
the global namespace.
