On AMD CPUs without ensuring cache consistency, each memory page
reclamation in an SEV guest triggers a call to wbinvd_on_all_cpus(),
thereby affecting the performance of other programs on the host.
Typically, an AMD server may have 128 cores or more, while the SEV guest
might only utilize 8 of these cores. Meanwhile, host can use qemu-affinity
to bind these 8 vCPUs to specific physical CPUs.
Therefore, keeping a record of the physical core numbers each time a vCPU
runs can help avoid flushing the cache for all CPUs every time.
Since the usage of sev_flush_asids() isn't tied to a single VM, we just
replace all wbinvd_on_all_cpus() with sev_do_wbinvd() except for that
in sev_flush_asids().

I'm unable to launch my SEV or SEV-ES guests with this patch (haven't
tried an SEV-SNP guest, yet). Qemu segfaults at launch.
I'll try to dig into what is happening, but not sure when I'll be able to
do that at the moment.
Thanks,
Tom
