We were talking about this internally. Behind the scenes Reinette had actually
spent a pretty large amount of time (the majority?) cleaning this series up
actually, to even this level. This was some code cleanup, but also functional
stuff like rooting out bugs where tests would give false positive passes. But
the plan of action was to have some other TDX developers start reviewing it on
the Intel side. I was also wondering how much time Sagi has to spend on it for
follow on versions? We might want to think about a more direct process for
changes->posting depending on if Sagi is able to spend more time.

But Sean, if you want to save some time I think we can just accelerate this
other reviewing. As far as new-fangled features, having this upstream is
important even for that, because we are currently having to keep these tests
plus follow on tests in sync across various development branches. So yea, it's
time to get this over the line.
