Provide wrappers to self-document what's going on, then the massive block comments
go away. And the guts of this and guest_update_mem_map() are nearly identical.

Hmm, and we probably want to make it possible to do negative testing.

Then the one-off enums for TO_PRIVATE and whatnot go way too.

Needs an assert that @size is page aligned. And since these are x86-64 specific,
just use PAGE_SHIFT. Huh, IS_ALIGNED() doesn't exist in selftests. That should
be added, either by pulling in align.h or by adding the generic macros to
kvm_util_base.h.

And then x86-64's processor.h can defined IS_PAGE_ALIGNED().

E.g.

static inline void __kvm_hypercall_map_gpa_range(uint64_t gpa, uint64_t size,
uint64_t flags)
{
return = kvm_hypercall(KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE, gpa, size >> PAGE_SHIFT, flags, 0);
}

static inline void kvm_hypercall_map_gpa_range(uint64_t gpa, uint64_t size,
uint64_t flags)
{
int ret;

GUEST_ASSERT_2(IS_PAGE_ALIGNED(gpa) && IS_PAGE_ALIGNED(size), gpa, size);

ret = __kvm_hypercall_map_gpa_range(gpa, size, flags);
GUEST_ASSERT_1(!ret, ret);
}

static inline kvm_hypercall_map_shared(uint64_t gpa, uint64_t size)
{
kvm_hypercall_map_gpa_range(gpa, size, KVM_CLR_GPA_RANGE_ENC_ACCESS);
}

static inline kvm_hypercall_map_private(uint64_t gpa, uint64_t size)
{
kvm_hypercall_map_gpa_range(gpa, size, KVM_MARK_GPA_RANGE_ENC_ACCESS);
}

Pass in @vcpu, not a vm+run.

Same here, take a @vcpu.
