If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From d6fd48eff7506bb866a54e40369df8899f2078a9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Borislav Petkov (AMD)" <bp@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2023 11:01:42 +0100 Subject: virt/coco/sev-guest: Check SEV_SNP attribute at probe time From: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@xxxxxxxxx> commit d6fd48eff7506bb866a54e40369df8899f2078a9 upstream. No need to check it on every ioctl. And yes, this is a common SEV driver but it does only SNP-specific operations currently. This can be revisited later, when more use cases appear. No functional changes.
