  The ccp driver can be overloaded even with 1 HZ throttling. The return
value of -EBUSY means that there is no firmware error to report back to
user space, so the guest VM would see this as exitinfo2 = 0. The false
success can trick the guest to update its the message sequence number
when it shouldn't have.

Instead, when ccp returns -EBUSY, we report that to userspace as the
throttling return value.
