Actually looking at this again, this is why we really need all CPUs synchronizing in NMI context before one CPU in NMI context takes control and issues SNP_DECOMMISSION on all SNP VMs.
If there are sev_vm_destroy() -> snp_decommision_context() executing, when they start handling NMI they would have either already issued SNP_DECOMMISSION for this VM and/or reclaimed the SNP guest context page (transitioned to FW state after SNP_DECOMMISSION). In both cases when we issue SNP_DECOMMISSION here in __snp_decommission_all(), the command will fail with INVALID_GUEST/INVALID_ADDRESS error, so we can simply ignore this error and assume that the VM has already been decommissioned and continue with decommissioning the other VMs.
I actually tested some of these scenarios and they work as above.

As mentioned above, we can ignore the failure here as the VM may have already been decommissioned.
In the case where SNP_DECOMMISSION fails without the VM being already decommissioned, crashkernel boot will fail.
Thanks, Ashish
