KVM_TDX_CAPABILITIES.cpuid doesn't work because it represents the configurable CPUIDs, not supported CPUIDs (I think we might rename it to configurable_cpuid to better reflect its meaning). So userspace has to hardcode that TSX and WAITPKG is not support itself.

For features configurable by CPUID like TSX and WAITPKG,
a value of 0 does mean unsupported, because the value
has to be 1 to enable the feature.
