SRU Justification
[Impact]
The TDX guest driver is currently packaged in linux-modules-extra. This is a non-optimal
experience for users of the Azure image that is focused on TDX encryption and security.
[Fix]
Build in the TDX guest driver
[Test Plan]
Check that the TDX guest driver no longer appears in linux-modules-extra
Microsoft tested as well.
[Regression potential]
There should be no regression potential.
[Other Info]
The patch for azure-5.19 is not strictly required, except in this case azure-5.19 is
being considered for a respin. The Azure images only use the 5.19 kernel from Jammy,
hence the reason for this transient patch. It will get overwritten when next
the azure-5.19 kernel is cranked against k/azure. copy-files overwrites all
of the config settings during 'cranky open'.
