[PATCH 0/5] KVM: Support guest MAXPHYADDR < host MAXPHYADDR

[Mohammed Gamal]

When EPT/NPT is enabled, KVM does not really look at guest physical 
address size. Address bits above maximum physical memory size are reserved. 
Because KVM does not look at these guest physical addresses, it currently 
effectively supports guest physical address sizes equal to the host.

This can be problem when having a mixed setup of machines with 5-level page 
tables and machines with 4-level page tables, as live migration can change 
MAXPHYADDR while the guest runs, which can theoretically introduce bugs.

In this patch series we add checks on guest physical addresses in EPT 
violation/misconfig and NPF vmexits and if needed inject the proper 
page faults in the guest.

A more subtle issue is when the host MAXPHYADDR is larger than that of the
guest. Page faults caused by reserved bits on the guest won't cause an EPT
violation/NPF and hence we also check guest MAXPHYADDR and add PFERR_RSVD_MASK
error code to the page fault if needed.
