Hmm, bit of a nitpick but the following is perhaps a little better wording:

s/Since we cannot ensure VRAM is consistent after a GPU reset, page
table shadowing is necessary. Shadowed page tables are, in a sense, a
method to recover the consistent state of the page tables before the
reset occurred.

Hope this is helpful,
Kind Regards,
Edward.
