Marshaling this through the struct just to get a set it to required_pages seems
a bit silly. But I see required_pages is needed for line length.

Two options:

Make the get_tdx_sys_info_ext() just take an unsigned int pointer arg. When
Chao's metadata reading stuff lands, we can keep the struct internal to the
helper, to still re-use the macro struct mapper stuff.

Rename memory_pool_required_pages to required_pages to shorten the lines to
something manageable and use it directly below.
