I guess you need to point out _first_ VM?

To reuse the same logic for what?  I think you need to be specific (and focus)
on why we need this patch:  we will opportunistically move CPU compatibility
check to hardware_enable_nolock(), which doesn't take any argument, and this
patch is a preparation to do that.

So how about replacing the last two paragraphs with:

"
Initializing TDX will be done during module loading time, and in order to do
that hardware_enable_all() will be done during module loading time too, as
initializing TDX requires all cpus being in VMX operation.  As a result, CPU
compatibility check will be opportunistically moved to hardware_enable_nolock(),
which doesn't take any argument.  Instead of passing 'opaque' around to
hardware_enable_nolock() and hardware_enable_all(), just remove the unused
'opaque' argument from kvm_arch_check_processor_compat().
"

Or even simpler:

"
To support TDX, hardware_enable_all() will be done during module loading time. 
As a result, CPU compatibility check will be opportunistically moved to
hardware_enable_nolock(), which doesn't take any argument.  Instead of passing
'opaque' around to hardware_enable_nolock() and hardware_enable_all(), just
remove the unused 'opaque' argument from kvm_arch_check_processor_compat().
"
