For nested guests the PML page was mapped to the host kernel using
kvm_vcpu_gpa_to_page which assumes that all guest memory is backed by a
"struct page". This breaks guests that have their memory outside the kernel
control.
Switch to the new host mapping API which takes care of this use-case as
well.
