One thing I didn't account for: if IOMMU initialization fails and iommu_snp_enable()
is never reached, CC_ATTR_HOST_SEV_SNP will be left set.

I don't see any great options.  Something like the below might work?  And maybe
keep a device_initcall() in arch/x86/virt/svm/sev.c that sanity checks that SNP
really is fully enabled?  Dunno, hopefully someone has a better idea.

 }
