Would it be possible to add a new add an argument to KVM_SNP_LAUNCH_FINISH to tell it which vCPUs to LAUNCH_UPDATE VMSA pages for or similarly a new argument for KVM_CREATE_VCPU?
But don't we want/need to measure all vCPUs using LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA before we issue SNP_LAUNCH_FINISH command ?
If we are going to add vCPUs and mark them as "pending AP boot creation" state then how are we going to do LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSAs for them after SNP_LAUNCH_FINISH ?

Yes we should be using kvm_for_each_vcpu(), that will also help avoid touching implementation
specific details and hide complexities such as xa_load(), locking requirements, etc.
Additionally, kvm_for_each_vcpu() works on online_cpus, but I think that is what we should
be considering at LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA time, via-a-vis created_vcpus.

This is using the per-cpu vcpu_svm structure, but we may need to guard against the KVM vCPU ioctl requests, so yes it is
safer to take the 'vcpu->mutex' lock here.

Yes the old VMSA page is now unavailable and lost, so makes sense to call host_rmp_make_shared() with leak==true.
