Sure, it can be flattened -- but it's out of place in SmmCpuFeaturesLib.
All of the logic pertaining to the unplug is in CpuHotPlugSmm, so it seems to
make sense to locate the related ejection code along with it.
If you are concerned about paying the additional cost of an indirect call
then I think it should be possible to install the handler only when there
is an actual unplug to be done and remove it after.

The reason for keeping the PCD in UefiCpuPkg was that its declaration and
init are in SmmCpuFeaturesLib which gets folded into the UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxe
execution context and so the export happening via OvmfPkg.dec seemed off.
That said, I guess your underlying point is that this adds unnecessary state to
non OVMF builds (?), which it does, so I can move the PCD to OvmfPkg.dec.
