If virt-host-validate is ran on a SEV-SNP capable machine, an extra "PASS" is printed out. This is because virHostValidateAMDSev() prints "PASS" and then returns 1 (indicating success) which in turn makes the caller (virHostValidateSecureGuests()) print "PASS" again. Just drop the extra printing in the caller and let virHostValidateAMDSev() do all the printing.
