So IIUC the gist of the solution here would be to replace

   /* Use the new VMSA */
   svm->sev_es.vmsa_pa = pfn_to_hpa(pfn);
   svm->vmcb->control.vmsa_pa = svm->sev_es.vmsa_pa;

with something like

   /* Use the new VMSA */
   __free_page(virt_to_page(svm->sev_es.vmsa));
   svm->sev_es.vmsa = pfn_to_kaddr(pfn);
   svm->vmcb->control.vmsa_pa = __pa(svm->sev_es.vmsa);

and wrap the __free_page() in sev_free_vcpu() with "if
(!svm->sev_es.snp_ap_create)".

This should remove the need for svm->sev_es.vmsa_pa. It is always
equal to svm->vmcb->control.vmsa_pa anyway.

Also, it's possible to remove

   /*
    * gmem pages aren't currently migratable, but if this ever
    * changes then care should be taken to ensure
    * svm->sev_es.vmsa_pa is pinned through some other means.
    */
   kvm_release_pfn_clean(pfn);

if sev_free_vcpu() does

   if (svm->sev_es.snp_ap_create) {
     __free_page(virt_to_page(svm->sev_es.vmsa));
   } else {
     put_page(virt_to_page(svm->sev_es.vmsa));
   }

and while at it, please reverse the polarity of snp_ap_create and
rename it to snp_ap_created.
