Yep, just did. Reverting ae9fedc793 fixes the issue.

Well, I'm not going to even pretend to know kvm to know *when* we're
saving VMCB state but if we're saving the wrong CPL and then doing the
pagetable walk, I can very well imagine if the walker gets confused. One
possible issue could be U/S bit (bit 2) in the PTE bits which allows
access to supervisor pages only when CPL < 3. I.e., CPL has effect on
pagetable walk and a wrong CPL level could break it.
All a conjecture though...
