We need if tdx() check *somewhere* as how exactly memory gets accepted is
specific to a particular platform.
There are two callsites where memory acceptance happens. One of them is in
boot stub where we don't have cc_ infrastructure. So it will boil down to
a single cc_accept_memory() that will have 'if tdx()' inside.
I don't see much sense in the exercise. We can as well keep the 'if' in
accept_memory().
