As mentioned elsewhere, make this a normal module_init() format and only load the module if the hardware is present. Don't just always be
This feature needs to be enabled by default for all valid TDX guests.
If TDX support is enabled and the guest is a valid TDX guest, the "X86 FEATURE TDX GUEST" feature flag will be set. So looking for "if(!cpu feature enabled(X86 FEATURE TDX GUEST))" will ensure that the interface is only created in a valid TDX guest.
Even if we make it into a separate driver and use module init(), we'll have to use the same "if(!cpu feature enabled(X86 FEATURE TDX GUEST))" check to create and load the device. This approach was used in earlier versions of this driver. We later changed it to initcall because it appeared to be a roundabout approach.
Let me know if you still suggest to use module_init() model.
Following is the sample implementation with module_init() and this code will be compiled with CONFIG_INTEL_TDX_GUEST=y.

built/loaded, that's not ok.
