Currently, we don't use those fields in our code. Why do we have to
make sure they are set to zero? Can't we add checks when we really use
them in future?

If your suggestion is to define allowed values of these fields for user,
we can add some help in structure definition of "tdx_report_req" in
arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/tdx.h
