For qemu-devel, here is the reference.

I'm not sure why lists.nongnu.org search doesn't show result with TDX keyword.
The qemu patchset you've mentioned doesn't seem to correspond entirely
to what this libvirt patchset is adding.
I was looking for the 'query-tdx-capabilities' QMP command which is used
in patch 1 of the libvirt series, but the patchset you've mentioned
doesn't add it at all.
As noted libvirt requires that the features exposed by libvirt are
accepted by upstream qemu before adding support for them, to prevent
maintenance of diverged or non-existing features.
