IIRC, in my previous patches I was returning status from sev_do_cmd()
instead of sev_platform_shutdown() but based on our previous
communication I thought you asked to return the status from the last
failed command. Did I miss understood ?

So my problem is that it looks strange that you save an error value from
sev_do_cmd() but you don't look at it. And as I said in the other mail,
you should either ignore it and say so in a comment why it is OK to
ignore it or handle it but not overwrite it without looking at it.

Does that make more sense?


I see your point, if both commands failed then I am now inclined towards ignoring the error code from shutdown command and add some comments explaining why its OK. thanks
