[PATCH v3 2/2] crypto/ccp: Skip SNP_INIT if preparation fails

From: Tycho Andersen

Date: Thu Apr 09 2026 - 15:57:08 EST


From: "Tycho Andersen (AMD)" <tycho@xxxxxxxxxx>

If snp_prepare() failed SNP_INIT will fail, so skip it and return early.
Note that this is not a change in initialization behavior: if SNP_INIT
failed before this patch, it will still return an error
__sev_snp_init_locked() and fail initialization of other SEV modes.
