For now the purpose is just to print whether module is debug or
production in the dmesg to let the user easily see, just like the module
version info.

Currently Linux depends on the BIOS to load the TDX module.  For that we
need to put the module at /boot/efi/EFI/TDX/ and name it TDX-SEAM.so.  So
given a machine, it's hard for the user to know whether a module is debug
one (the user may be able to get such info from the BIOS log, but it is
not always available for the user).

Yes I agree we should have a policy in the kernel to handle debug module,
but I don't see urgent need of it.  So I would prefer to leave it as
future work when needed.

I'll look into how to auto-generate based on JSON file.

I wanted to name the structure following the "Class" name in the JSON
file.  Both 'sys_attributes' and 'tdx_featueres0' are under class "Module
Info".

I guess "attributes" are not necessarily features.

I agree this is easier to read if we don't look at the JSON file.  On the
other hand, following JSON file's "Class" names IMHO we can more easily
find which class to look at for a given member.

So I think they both have pros/cons, and I have no hard opinion on this.
