Ok, do that and init the PSP master and then put the device in UNINIT
state only in the functions which execute those commands which need the
device to be in UNINIT state, e.g., wrap the SEV_CMD_FACTORY_RESET glue
in a command function which does put the device in the UNINIT state as a
first step.

Then, when that function is done, put the device in the mode which the
other commands would expect it to be in, e.g., INIT state.

This way you'll simplify the whole command flow considerably and won't
have to "toggle" the device each time and will save yourself a lot of
time on command execution.

Thx.
