configfs-tsm-report: tdx_guest: Increase Quote buffer size to 128KB
Intel platforms are transitioning from traditional SGX-based attestation toward DICE-based attestation as part of a broader move toward open and standardized attestation models. DICE enables layered and extensible attestation, where evidence is accumulated across multiple boot stages. With SGX-based attestation, Quote sizes are typically under 8KB, as the payload consists primarily of Quote data and a small certificate bundle. Existing TDX guest code sizes the Quote buffer accordingly. DICE-based attestation produces significantly larger Quotes due to the inclusion of evidence (certificate chains) from multiple boot layers. The cumulative Quote size can reach approximately 100KB. Increase GET_QUOTE_BUF_SIZE to 128KB to ensure sufficient buffer capacity for DICE-based Quote payloads.
