[RFC PATCH 0/2] KVM: MMU: return page fault error code from permission_fault

From: Paolo Bonzini

Intel's new PKU extension introduces a bit of the page fault error code
that must be dynamically computed after the PTE lookup (unlike I/D, U/S
and W/R). To ease this, these two patches make permission_fault return
the page fault error code.

Right now it only adds the P bit to the input parameter "pfec", but PKU
can change that.
