Passing 'code' is kinda silly now that I look at it.  But, this:

#define TDX_ERROR			(1UL << 63)
#define TDX_SW_ERROR 			(TDX_ERROR | GENMASK_ULL(40, 47))
#define TDX_SEAMCALL_VMFAILINVALID	(TDX_SW_ERROR | 0xFFFF0000ULL)

Actually gives you a chance in hell of connecting this code back to the
spec.
