Jarkko Sakkinen b3b9fdf1a9 crypto: ccp - Add a quirk to firmware update
A quirk for fixing the committed TCB version, when upgrading from a
firmware version earlier than 1.50. This is a known issue, and the
documented workaround is to load the firmware twice.

Currently, this issue requires the  following workaround:

sudo modprobe -r kvm_amd
sudo modprobe -r ccp
sudo modprobe ccp
sudo modprobe kvm_amd

Implement this workaround inside kernel by checking whether the API
version is less than 1.50, and if so, download the firmware twice.
This addresses the TCB version issue.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
