Sorry I didn't continue the discussion in that thread, but I meant to
just skip -EOPNOTSUPP, but not hide real problems.

Not sure if it makes sense to other people, if yes, some changes below:

        return ret;

I think no need the comments, all features are optional unless
explicitly required. So only exceptions need comments. Instead the code
may explain better.

	ret = seamldr_init(&fdev->dev);
	if (ret && ret != -EOPNOTSUPP)
		return ret;

I imagine TDX Connect could follow the same pattern right below.
