# git grep "TDX-Module" | wc -l
13

# git grep "TDX module" | wc -l
162

#git grep "TDX-Module" | grep kvm | wc -l
9

#git grep "TDX module" | grep kvm | wc -l
42

There are 13 "TDX-Module" vs 162 "TDX module" in the kernel, and
9 "TDX-Module" vs 42 "TDX module" in KVM files. Given this, I changed to 
use "TDX module"
