===> getting the pointer (manufacturing it) can be done in user
state. Accessing the TDE can be done in user state. This is
actually a security flaw that can be exploited to completely
"take over" the machine.

===> A job can get any TDE (including its own).

Getting and working with the TDE is working "below" the MI (and
thus strictly speaking off topic :-). You only want to go there if you
*really* need to. What is the problem you are trying to solve?
