Currently, the 'struct tdmr_sys_info_tdmr' which includes TDMR related
fields defines the PAMT entry sizes for TDX supported page sizes (4KB,
2MB and 1GB) as an array:

struct tdx_sys_info_tdmr {
...
u16 pamt_entry_sizes[TDX_PS_NR];
};

PAMT entry sizes are needed when allocating PAMTs for each TDMR. Using
the array to contain PAMT entry sizes reduces the number of arguments
that need to be passed when calling tdmr_set_up_pamt(). It also makes
the code pattern like below clearer:

for (pgsz = TDX_PS_4K; pgsz < TDX_PS_NR; pgsz++) {
pamt_size[pgsz] = tdmr_get_pamt_sz(tdmr, pgsz,
pamt_entry_size[pgsz]);
tdmr_pamt_size += pamt_size[pgsz];
}

However, the auto-generated metadata reading code generates a structure
member for each field. The 'global_metadata.json' has a dedicated field
for each PAMT entry size, and the new 'struct tdx_sys_info_tdmr' looks
like:

struct tdx_sys_info_tdmr {
...
u16 pamt_4k_entry_size;
u16 pamt_2m_entry_size;
u16 pamt_1g_entry_size;
};

To prepare to use the auto-generated code, make the existing 'struct
tdx_sys_info_tdmr' look like the generated one. But when passing to
tdmrs_set_up_pamt_all(), build a local array of PAMT entry sizes from
the structure so the code to allocate PAMTs can stay the same.
