Subject: [RESEND PATCH] virt/sev-guest: Return -EIO if certificate buffer is not large enough

Commit 47894e0fa6a5 ("virt/sev-guest: Prevent IV reuse in the SNP guest
driver") changed the behavior associated with the return value when the
caller does not supply a large enough certificate buffer. Prior to the
commit a return value of -EIO was returned. Now a return value of 0 is
returned. This breaks the established ABI with the user.

Change the code to detect the buffer size error and return -EIO.

My bad. I wasn't testing the return value in this case.

Should Boris take this patch into the retry series?

Why not set 'ret = -EIO' and use disable_vmpck directly? That seems
more clear to me instead of failing on the next call.

We don't want to disable the VMPCK for this. This should go back to
userspace with EIO and SNP_GUEST_REQ_INVALID_LEN, as it did prior to
47894e0fa6a5. Userspace then allocates a larger buffer and re-issues the
request which should now succeed.

Thanks,
Tom
