The kernel reads all TDMR related global metadata fields based on a

Currently this table is a static variable. But this table is only used
by the function which reads these metadata fields and becomes useless
after reading is done.
Change the table to function local variable. This also saves the
storage of the table from the kernel image.
It seems like a reasonable change, but I don't see how it helps the purpose
of
this series. It seems more like generic cleanup. Can you explain?
It doesn't help KVM from exporting API's perspective.
I just uses this series for some small improvement (that I believe) of
the current code too.
I can certainly drop this if you don't want it, but it's just a small
change and I don't see the benefit of sending it out separately.
The change makes sense to me by itself, but it needs to be called out as
unrelated cleanup. Otherwise it will be confusing to anyone reviewing this from
the perspective of something KVM TDX needs.
Don't have a super strong opinion. But given the choice, I would prefer it gets
separated, because to me it's a lower priority then the rest (which is high).
OK I'll drop this one.
