Subject: [PATCH] KVM: SVM: Call SEV Guest Decommission if ASID binding fails

Send SEV_CMD_DECOMMISSION command to PSP firmware if ASID binding
fails. If a failure happens after  a successful LAUNCH_START command,
a decommission command should be executed. Otherwise, guest context
will be unfreed inside the AMD SP. After the firmware will not have
memory to allocate more SEV guest context, LAUNCH_START command will
begin to fail with SEV_RET_RESOURCE_LIMIT error.

The existing code calls decommission inside sev_unbind_asid, but it is
not called if a failure happens before guest activation succeeds. If
sev_bind_asid fails, decommission is never called. PSP firmware has a
limit for the number of guests. If sev_asid_binding fails many times,
PSP firmware will not have resources to create another guest context.
