I think calling this in-kernel quote generation vs user-spcae quote 
generation is misleading. Rather the distinction is : quote via the vmm 
or a quote generated by the tdx module/tdx extension. I think this 
should be the level at which the distinction is made.


i.e tdx_get_quote_vmm vs tdx_get_quote_ext or some along those lines.
