Introducing support for live update on AMD SEV-SNP platforms via
DOWNLOAD_FIRMWARE_EX.

This patchset is an extension of the RFC patchset from Tycho
Andersen[1].

This series also fronts firmware_loader patches from Dan Williams[2]
which majorly cleans up refcount issues so that registering the upload
interface no longer pins the module. Without which having live firmware
update will cause failure to reload the ccp module as well as break
kexec.

Patches based on cryptodev-2.6

RFC..v1:
 * firmware-loader patches are rebased as-is and only incorporates
   fixes for minor build issues
 * Dropped crypto/ccp: Hoist kernel part of SNP_PLATFORM_STATUS as that
   patch has been merged since
 * Dropped crypto/ccp: Reclaim command buffer when the PSP dies and
   subsequent handling since firmware quirk is now resolved and need not be
   handled in the OS
 * Use guard(mutex) for the locked region, which the split makes
   possible since sev_get_api_version() acquires sev_cmd_mutex - Maxwell
 * Added a patch factoring out the TMR and INIT_EX teardown, so the update
   path and __sev_firmware_shutdown() share it - Shantanu
 * Skip the re-init when the PSP is dead, not just when a rollback is
   outstanding - Shantanu
 * Re-initialize the platform before refreshing the cached status -
   Shantanu
 * Split the monolithic .write into a locked update helper, an error
   translation helper, and a thin .write that refreshes the cached status
   once the lock is dropped and clean up various allocations
 * Convert rollback required and reinit required globals to reside in
   sev_dev struct to avoid carrying over states if manually reloaded
