I don't think we'd necessarily need a firmware change. We could just
free original VMSA back to the hypervisor as soon as those APs come
online. The down-side to that versus deferring cleaning till guest
shutdown is there is some flushing activity (see:
sev_flush_encrypted_page()) that would now likely be occuring during
guest boot up where the overhead might be more noticeable. But for SNP
the host likely supports X86_FEATURE_SME_COHERENT so the overhead
probably isn't that bad.

I don't think that would be the normal behavior, but maybe with some
care it's possible for a guest to do things that way. I haven't seen
anything strictly prohibiting this in the relevant specs.

The initial SNP support for guest kernels already made use of
snp_alloc_vmsa_page() to do the appropriate workaround to avoid allocating
2MB-aligned VMSA pages.
