I have never saw the check to be useful. I think it can be just dropped.

The patch below makes detect_tme() only enumerate TME and MKTME. And
report number of keyid bits. Kernel doesn't care about anything else.

Any comments?

Subject: [PATCH] x86/cpu/intel: Simplify detect_tme()

The detect_tme() function is now only called by the boot CPU. The logic
for cross-checking TME configuration between CPUs is no longer used. It
has never identified a real problem and can be safely removed.

The kernel does not use MKTME and is not concerned with MKTME policy or
encryption algorithms. There is no need to check them.
