Like this. All checks are moved to get_and_check_blob(). alloc_seamldr_params()
loses all checks because it's about passing things to the TDX module. Also
alloc_seamldr_params() switches to handling page counts only and becomes
smaller.
Below is not even compile tested. Please verify that everything needed
is still checked if you take from it:
/*
* Blob fields are processed by the kernel and the payloads
* are passed to the TDX module. Do normal user input type
* check for any fields that don't get passed to the TDX module.

* blob may overflow.
