Maybe.. Normally if the firmware is functional enough to report the core
state, then I would expect the kernel mitigation to be enabled. But your
right, if the mitigation is disabled then it might be possible for us to
miss the blacklist and report the machine safe even if the firmware
reports it vulnerable.

The core problem though is really that the blacklist isn't complete,
because we also report an incorrect state if the firmware fails to
respond. Although that said, there are still some other interesting
paths here which might fall into the "unknown" case if you get creative
enough (ex: think force disabling a SSBS mitigated machine).

Anyway, its probably worth flagging the machine vulnerable if we get
SMCC_RET_SUCCESS to avoid cases which miss the blacklist.
