I disagree.  To me passing 'struct tdx_tdmr_info *tdmr_list' to
construct_tdmrs() as parameter makes this function clearer:

It takes all TDX memory blocks and sysinfo, generates the TDMRs, and stores them
to the buffer specified in the tdmr_list.  The internal logic doesn't need to
care whether any of of those parameters are static or not.
