I don't get it. Could you elaborate it a bit?

• cr4 |= X86_CR4_OSXMMEXCPT;
• /* TDX spec 11.6.2: CR4 bit VMXE and SMXE are fixed to 0 */
• cr4 &= ~(X86_CR4_VMXE | X86_CR4_SMXE);
• /* Set parameters! */
• params->cr0 = kvm_get_default_cr0();
• params->cr3 = vm->pgd;
• params->cr4 = cr4;
• params->idtr.base = vm->arch.idt;
• params->idtr.limit = kvm_get_default_idt_limit();
• params->gdtr.base = vm->arch.gdt;
• params->gdtr.limit = kvm_get_default_gdt_limit();
• TEST_ASSERT(params->cr0 != 0, "cr0 should not be 0");
