This patch missed sev_asid_free().

And on a very related topic, I'm pretty sure the VMCB+ASID invalidation logic
indexes sev_vmcbs incorrectly. pre_sev_run() indexes sev_vmcbs by the ASID,
whereas sev_asid_free() indexes by ASID-1, i.e. on free KVM nullifies the wrong
sev_vmcb entry. sev_cpu_init() allocates for max_sev_asid+1, so indexing by
ASID appears to be the intended behavior. That code is also a good candidate for
conversion to nr_asids in this patch.

It's also missing this (off by one for SEV guests, pointless extra work for
SEV-ES):

Queued both Mingwei's patch and yours, thanks (to 5.14-rc in order to avoid conflicts).
