This is a lot of text. More is not necessarily better.

The tdx-guest driver marshals requests via hypercall to have a quoting
enclave sign attestation evidence about the current state of the TD.
There are 2 possible failures, a transport failure (failure to
communicate with the quoting agent) and payload failure (a failed
quote). The driver only checks the former, update it to consider the
latter payload errors as well.

Do you really want to spam the log on every error? I would expect
pr_err() for events that are fatal to driver operation that might
indicate conditions where maybe the TD should give up on the host.

Yes, there are other pr_err() in this function and I am kicking myself
for not scrutinizing those more closely. It is likely enough to
distinguish transport errors vs payload / quote errors with ENXIO and
EIO.

Otherwise if there is an exceedingly good reason to keep this driver
chirping into the kernel log then these likely also want to be
rate-limited. If they are "just in case" debug messages, then move them
to pr_debug().
