No VP.ENTER doesn't return 0 for RAX. Firstly, VP.ENTER can return for many
reasons but not limited to TDVMCALL (e.g., due to interrupt), and for those
cases RAX contains valid non-zero value. Secondly, even for TDVMCALL, the RAX
isn't 0:

Table 6.256 TDX 1.5 ABI spec:

RAX SEAMCALL instruction return code
The DETAILS_L2 field in bits 31:0 contain the VMCS exit reason, 
indicating TDCALL (77).
