🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what's actually going down here? Initialize survivability information — yes, that's step one — and enable boot survivability mode. both. together. it's giving "two birds, one function call" and we're obsessed 💅

literally it sets up the survivability info and then flips boot survivability mode on. main character energy fr fr 🔥

it hands you back:

• 0 — if boot survivability mode is enabled, or if it was never even requested. either way, zero, we love a chill return 💖
