[PATCH] crypto: ccp: Add a quirk to firmware update

From: Jarkko Sakkinen
Date: Sun Aug 07 2022 - 20:16:28 EST


From: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko@xxxxxxxxxxx>

A quirk for fixing the committed TCB version, when upgrading from earlier
firmware version than 1.33.01. This is a known issue, and the documented
workaround is to load the firmware twice.

The issue realizes in a machine where the upgrade is done from firmware
reporting having SEV API version 1.49, and requires the following
workaround:

sudo modprobe -r kvm_amd
sudo modprobe -r ccp
sudo modprobe ccp
sudo modprobe kvm_amd

Implement this workaround inside kernel by checking whether the API
version is less than 1.50, and if so, download the firmware twice.
This addresses the TCB version issue.
