Note that as far as I can see TDISP makes no requirement of the VMM nor
TVM (trusted VM) to drive an SPDM session. All of that is handled by the
TSM (TEE / Platform Security Manager) where the VMM is outside the trust
boundary. The TVM only validates the contents of a
GET_DEVICE_INTERFACE_REPORT which the TSM had negotiated with the DSM
(Device Security Manager).
All this to say its not clear that Linux needs to grow the capabilities
listed above when it is expected to be outside the Trusted Compute
Boundary.
