[RFC 02/12] KVM/VMX: Use the new host mapping API for apic_access_page
From: KarimAllah Ahmed
Date: Mon Feb 05 2018 - 13:50:11 EST
For nested guests the apic_access_page was mapped to the host kernel using
kvm_vcpu_gpa_to_page which assumes that all guest memory is backed by a
"struct page". This breaks guests that have their memory outside the kernel
control.
Switch to the new host mapping API which takes care of this use-case as
well.
