Forgot to drop the additional reference acquired by gfn_to_pfn ?

Hum, gfn_to_hva assumes the slot information is accurate, which is not
the case if you simply munmap a page in the middle of a slot... we
should provide a helper in userspace, and make sure nothing bad can
happen otherwise. 

Anyway, why don't you just let kvm_mmu_page_fault handle instruction
emulation instead of opencoding it in handle_ept_violation ?
