Dionna Glaze d889b7bc12 x86/sev: Change snp_guest_issue_request()'s fw_err argument
[ Upstream commit 0144e3b85d ]

The GHCB specification declares that the firmware error value for
a guest request will be stored in the lower 32 bits of EXIT_INFO_2.  The
upper 32 bits are for the VMM's own error code. The fw_err argument to
snp_guest_issue_request() is thus a misnomer, and callers will need
access to all 64 bits.

The type of unsigned long also causes problems, since sw_exit_info2 is
u64 (unsigned long long) vs the argument's unsigned long*. Change this
type for issuing the guest request. Pass the ioctl command struct's error
field directly instead of in a local variable, since an incomplete guest
request may not set the error code, and uninitialized stack memory would
be written back to user space.

The firmware might not even be called, so bookend the call with the no
firmware call error and clear the error.

Since the "fw_err" field is really exitinfo2 split into the upper bits'
vmm error code and lower bits' firmware error code, convert the 64 bit
value to a union.
