Subject[PATCH 0/8] KVM: x86/mmu: Use separate namespaces gPTEs and SPTEs
From
Clean up the x86 MMU code to use separate namespaces for guest PTEs and
shadow PTEs. While there is most definitely overlap, especially in
attribute bits, the rules for walking gPTEs and for generating/walking
SPTEs differ in subtle ways, e.g. see commit fc9bf2e087ef ("KVM: x86/mmu:
Do not apply HPA (memory encryption) mask to GPAs"). The paging32 macros
in particular should never be used outside of paging_tmpl.h.

Separating gPTEs from SPTEs actually provides for nice cleanups (see the
diffstat) as KVM has ended up with a fair bit of copy+paste code that can
be deduplicated once KVM isn't trying to use PT64_* defines for both gPTEs
and SPTEs.

This is a spiritual successor to patches 4-7 of the series[*] that added
the aformentenioned commit.
