Apologize I am not entirely sure whether I fully got your point.  Do you mean
something like below?

static struct tdsysinfo_struct tdx_sysinfo;

static int tdmr_size_single(int max_reserved_per_tdmr)
{
	...
}

static int tdmr_array_size(struct tdsysinfo_struct *sysinfo)
{
	return tdmr_size_single(sysinfo->max_reserved_per_tdmr) *
			sysinfo->max_tdmrs;
}

static int init_tdx_module(void)
{
	...
	tdx_get_sysinfo(&tdx_sysinfo, ...);
	...

	tdmr_array = alloc_pages_exact(tdmr_array_size(&tdx_sysinfo),
						GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO);
	...

	construct_tdmrs(tdmr_array, &nr_tdmrs, &tdx_sysinfo);
	...
}
