CVE-2026-64307

crypto: ccp - Do not initialize SNP for ioctl(SNP_CONFIG)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: ccp - Do not initialize SNP for ioctl(SNP_CONFIG)

Sashiko notes:

Refuse to re-try initialization if SNP is not already initialized for
SNP_CONFIG.

This is technically an ABI break: before if SNP initialization failed it
could be transparently retriggered by this ioctl, and if no VMs were
running, everything worked fine. Hopefully this is enough of a corner case
that nobody will notice, but someone does, there are a few options:

* do something like symbol_get() for kvm and refuse to initialize if KVM is
  loaded
* check each cpu's HSAVE_PA for non-zero data before re-initializing
* once initialization has failed, continue to refuse to initialize until
  the ccp module is unloaded
