I don't think so. There is kernel managed spdm transfer support WIP,
which is another topic.  We don't want to mix the namespace with that
one.

And we also don't name it tsm_spdm_msg_exchange, cause TSM firmwares
output different blobs for vendor TSM drivers to transfer. E.g. TDX
Module outputs buffers with DOE header & SPDM header, other vendors
(AMD IIRC) outputs buffers with only SPDM header. So this function is
TDX specific.
