I have never seen this path used in coreboot. This line above is
saying CSE is responsible for saving and retrieving training data. In
coreboot we use the main processor to save and restore. I suggest
reading over the UPD parameters and ensure they match with our typical
use cases. BCT tool enabling 'training data save' sounds like it's
enabling CSE path.
