Thanks Wanpeng. The code now looks good. Just one thing: please swap
them, so that the series remains bisectable.

Also, I think nested_get_vmcs12_pages would be a better name for the
function. apic_access_and_virtual_page_valid doesn't hint at the side
effects of the function (for example calling nested_get_page).

The way I swap patches is by using "git checkout -p" like this:

git branch tpr-shadow-old
git reset --hard HEAD^^
git checkout -p tpr-shadow-old
... pick hunks related to the second patch ...
git commit -c tpr-shadow-old
... edit commit message if needed ...
git checkout -p tpr-shadow-old
... pick hunks related to the first patch ...
git commit -C tpr-shadow-old^
... edit commit message if needed ...
git diff tpr-shadow-old HEAD
