Can you instead of move vcpu_svm's apf_reason field to kvm_vcpu_arch?
(e.g. vcpu->arch.apf.host_apf_reason)?

This code can be moved to a common function

int kvm_handle_page_fault(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, u64 error_code,
u64 fault_address);

in mmu.c. It can be used by vmx.c here and in svm.c's pf_interception.

You can change "enable_ept" to "tdp_enabled" (but please make that a
WARN_ON_ONCE, too).

Thanks,

Paolo
