x86/tdx: Exclude shared bit from __PHYSICAL_MASK
In TDX guests, by default memory is protected from host access. If a guest needs to communicate with the VMM (like the I/O use case), it uses a single bit in the physical address to communicate the protected/shared attribute of the given page. In the x86 ARCH code, __PHYSICAL_MASK macro represents the width of the physical address in the given architecture. It is used in creating physical PAGE_MASK for address bits in the kernel. Since in TDX guest, a single bit is used as metadata, it needs to be excluded from valid physical address bits to avoid using incorrect addresses bits in the kernel. Enable DYNAMIC_PHYSICAL_MASK to support updating the __PHYSICAL_MASK.
