I guess this traces back to a comment by Binbin. Which had a specific reason.
Changing the global from a void * means a cast would be needed to pass it to
tdx_hcall_get_quote(). I had to go hunting back multiple versions to learn this
because the log didn't mention it. Otherwise it looks like misc cleanup. Can you
explain the connection to future changes in the log?
