Rather than focus in on one specific command-line parameter, let's just say:

	In practice TDX supports at least 64 TDMRs.  A 2-socket system
	typically only consumes <NUMBER> of those.  This code is dumb
	and simple and may use more TMDRs than is strictly required.

Let's also put a pr_warn() in here if we exceed, say 1/2 or maybe 3/4 of
the 64.  We'll hopefully start to get reports somewhat in advance if
systems get close to the limit.
