That doesn't address the case where amd_iommu_prepare() fails, because amd_iommu_snp_en
will be %false (it's init value) and the RMP will be uninitialized, i.e.
CC_ATTR_HOST_SEV_SNP will be incorrectly left set.

And conversely, IMO clearing CC_ATTR_HOST_SEV_SNP after initializing the IOMMU
and RMP is wrong as well. Such a host is probably hosted regardless, but from
the CPU's perspective, SNP is supported and enabled.
