Side topic, 'struct x86_exception' really should be using a u32 for the
error code.  Practically speaking, I expect bits 31:16 will be reserved in
perpetuity, but it's jarring to see 'u16 error_code', and it leads to
pointless discrepancies, e.g. 'u32 access' in ->gva_to_gpa().

Don't suppose you'd be in the mood to kill the bare 'unsigned'?

  WARNING: Prefer 'unsigned int' to bare use of 'unsigned'

Alternatively, what about capturing the result in a new variable (instead of
defining the mask) to make the wrap suck less (or just overflow like the
current code), e.g.:

        u32 access = error_code &
                     (PFERR_WRITE_MASK | PFERR_FETCH_MASK | PFERR_USER_MASK);

        if (!(error_code & PFERR_PRESENT_MASK) ||
            vcpu->arch.walk_mmu->gva_to_gpa(vcpu, gva, access, &fault) != UNMAPPED_GVA) {
