I'm not suprised, it doesn't. Broken comment clearly, I'll fix with
s/GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT/__GFP_ZERO

I think we can -- that function didn't exist when I first wrote this,
but no good reason not to use it now.

No strong opinion really, but I suppose I could do something as simple
as having static inline wrappers which provide kvm_s2_mm_ops to the
pgtable API for me. I'll probably want to make sure these are not
defined when compiling EL2 code, though, to avoid confusion.
Or maybe you had something else in mind?
