Oh, actually, a better idea. Add an inner __kvm_page_track_register_notifier() that is not exported and thus used only by KVM, invoke mmu_enable_write_tracking() from the exported kvm_page_track_register_notifier(), and then do the above. That will require modifying KVMGT and KVM in a single patch, but that's ok. That will avoid any possibility of an external user failing to enabling tracking before registering its notifier, and also avoids bikeshedding over what to do with the one-line wrapper to enable tracking.
