Good catch I'll remove the `dst_vcpu = dst->vcpus[i];` line.

That sounds like a good idea to me. I'll add a new patch to the start
of the series which adds in something like:

struct vcpu_sev_es_state {
/* SEV-ES support */
struct vmcb_save_area *vmsa;
struct ghcb *ghcb;
struct kvm_host_map ghcb_map;
bool received_first_sipi;
/* SEV-ES scratch area support */
void *ghcb_sa;
u64 ghcb_sa_len;
bool ghcb_sa_sync;
bool ghcb_sa_free;
};

struct vcpu_svm {
...
struct vcpu_sev_es_state sev_es_state;
...
};

I think that will make this less tedious / error prone code. Names
sound OK or better suggestion?
