Finally getting around to this patch. Thanks for your patience.

Whether the exit to guest for certs is first or second when getting
the attestation report, the certificates need to be
consistent. Since we don't have any locks held before exiting, and no
checks happening on the result, there's a
chance that a well-intentioned host can still provide the wrong
certificate to the guest when VMs are running and requesting
attestations during a firmware hotload.

Thread 1:
DOWNLOAD_FIRMWARE_EX please
CURRENT_TCB > REPORTED_TCB
(notify service to get a new VCEK cert)
Interrupted

Thread 2:
VM extended guest request in.
Exit to user space
Call SNP_PLATFORM_STATUS to get REPORTED_TCB.
Get certs for REPORTED_TCB for the blob. It's at /x/y/z-REPORTED_TCB.crt.
Interrupted

Thread 1:
I got my VCEK cert delivered for CURRENT_TCB! I'll put it at
/x/y/z-CURRENT_TCB.crt
Great. SNP_COMMIT.
Now both REPORTED_TCB and COMMITTED_TCB to CURRENT_TCB, because that's
the spec. Different reported_tcb here. than in thread 1.
Interrupted

Thread 2:
Get the attestation report. It will be signed by the VCEK versioned to
the newer REPORTED_TCB.
Return to VM guest

VM guest:
My report's signature doesn't verify with the VCEK cert I was given.
Yes, 1-88-COM-PLAIN?

How do we avoid this?
1. We can advise that the guest parses the certificate and the
attestation report to determine if their TCBs match expectations and
retry if they're different because of a bad luck data race.
2. We can add a new global lock that KVM holds from CCP similar to
sev_cmd_lock to sequentialize req_certs, attestation reports, and
SNP_COMMIT. KVM releases the lock before returning to the guest.
  SNP_COMMIT must now hold this lock before attempting to grab the sev_cmd_lock.

I think probably 2 is better.

This should be whatever exit reason #define you go with (40), not the
(1) you defined for kvm_snp_exit.

I think this whole struct should be removed since we're only doing the
one exit reason. This is unused.
You also double-#define the return value preprocessor directives.

Probably we should just make this KVM_EXT_SNP_REQ_CERTS so the rest of
the code works.
