You can also get at mm_ops through kvm_pgtable_visit_ctx

I don't believe we should warn in this case, at least not
unconditionally. ENOMEM is an expected outcome, for example.
Additionally, I believe you'll want to bail out at this point to avoid
installing a potentially garbage PTE as well.

Ah, I see why you've relaxed the WARN in patch 1 now.
I would recommend you follow the break-before-make pattern and use the
helpers here as well. stage2_try_break_pte() will demote the store to
WRITE_ONCE() if called from a non-shared context.
Then the WARN will behave as expected in stage2_make_pte().

typo: stage2_make_pte()
