It leads to

   qemu-system-x86_64: ../hw/core/qdev.c:824: qdev_get_machine: Assertion
`dev' failed.
   Aborted (core dumped)

for the case of "-cpu help" due to the assert(dev) in qdev_get_machine().

How do you want to resolve it? I can think of two:
1. remove the assert() in qdev_get_machine(). or
2. drop the callback introduce by this patch. Instead just do

    if (is_tdx_vm()) {
        tdx_cpu_instance_init();
    }

Sorry I missed this mail when review this patch.

What about checking `current_machine`?

"-cpu help" is processed before machine creation. The cpu-core
(cpu_core_instance_init) also checks current_machine to avoid similar
issue.

This is a really good suggestion! I'll take it.

Thanks!

Zhao
