From security's perspective, attestation is an essential part of TDX. That
being said, w/o attestation support in TD guest, I guess nobody will seriously
use TD guest.

From this perspective, I am not sure what's the value of having a dedicated
INTEL_TDX_ATTESTATION Kconfig. The attestation support code should be turned on
unconditionally when CONFIG_INTEL_TDX_GUEST is on. The code can also be just
under arch/x86/coco/tdx/ I guess?

But I'll leave this to maintainers.
