Disclaimer: not my world at all...

Based on the prototype for __sev_do_cmd_locked(), @error is intended to be
filled only if there's an actual response from the PSP, which is a 16-bit
value.  So maybe init @psp_ret at the beginning of __sev_do_cmd_locked() to
-1 to indicate the command was never sent to the PSP?  And update the
pr_err() in sev_asid_flush() to explicitly state it's the PSP return?
