good patch, it look like things will be very fixable with it

you probably mean gpa_t ?

Yes. But the function is assigned to a function pointer. And the type of
that pointer expects gva_t there. So I named the parameter gpa to
describe that a guest physical address is meant there.

i dont know if it worth checking it here,
in the worth case we will map the error page and the host will be safe

Looking at the nonpaging_map function it is the right place to check for
the error page.

thinking about it again you are right, (for some reason i was thinking about old kvm code that was replace already)
the is_error_page should be here.
