The reason for adding them is to give an idea that this driver in future could
be used for use cases other than GetReport. Query about possible use cases came up
in a previous review about /dev/tdx-guest device name usage. So I thought it is
better to give a clear idea on how this device may be used in the future.

Maybe I can add a note that currently only attestation report is supported.
