Rather than focus in on one specific command-line parameter, let's just say:
In practice TDX supports at least 64 TDMRs. A 2-socket system typically only consumes <NUMBER> of those. This code is dumb and simple and may use more TMDRs than is strictly required.
Let's also put a pr_warn() in here if we exceed, say 1/2 or maybe 3/4 of the 64. We'll hopefully start to get reports somewhat in advance if systems get close to the limit.
