Got the point after synced with chao.
in case of using for_each_online_cpu() it's safe to remove the mutex_lock(&tdx_mng_key_config_lock[pkg]),
since every thread will select only 1 cpu for each sockets in same order, and requests submited
to same cpu by smp_call_on_cpu() are ordered on the target cpu. That means removing the lock works for
using for_each_online_cpu() but does NOT work for randomly pick up a cpu per socket.

Maybe it's just my issue that doesn't realize what's going on here, but
I think it still worth to give comment here for why it works/does not work.
