We will still need some method to tell the IOMMU driver if SNP
support/feature is disabled by this function, for example, when CPU
family and model is not supported by SNP and we jump to no_snp label.
The reliable way for this to work is to ensure snp_rmptable_init() is
called before IOMMU initialization and then IOMMU initialization depends
on SNP feature flag setup by snp_rmptable_init() to enable SNP support
on IOMMU or not.
If snp_rmptable_init() is called after IOMMU initialization and it
detects an issue with SNP support it will clear the SNP feature but the
IOMMU driver does not get notified about it, therefore,
snp_rmptable_init() should get called before IOMMU initialization or as
part of IOMMU initialization, for example, amd_iommu_enable() calling
snp_rmptable_init() before calling iommu_snp_enable().
