IIUC, this change handles logical CPU initialization part of TDX module
initialization. So why talk about TDH.SYS.CONFIG failure here? Are they
related?

TDH.SYS.LP.INIT can be called concurrently on all cpus.

IMO, if you move the following paragraph to the beginning, it is easier
to understand "what" and "why" part of this change.

Following global initialization, do the logical-cpu scope initialization
by calling TDH.SYS.LP.INIT on all online cpus.  Whether all BIOS-enabled
cpus are online is not checked here for simplicity.  The caller of
tdx_init() should guarantee all BIOS-enabled cpus are online.

Include specification reference for TDX module initialization and
TDH.SYS.LP.INIT.

In TDX module spec, section 22.2.35 (TDH.SYS.LP.INIT Leaf), mentions
some environment requirements. I don't see you checking here for it?
Is this already met?
